We talked about things only my best friends know and still today we are in contact and hopefully we see each other again somewhere. Normally I don’t tell to guys that I miss them. Dale is an exception.

Unforgettable: Dale lost once his “very old and full of memories” hat in the bus. Luckily he got it back on the next day (it was in Chile) and finally he even sewed some holes in the hat with my needles and yarn. Marta (Poland, Chile)

Thanks to Marta, Dale and I we went from Pucon to Puerto Varas and slept in the Hostel she was working for. So we met again and soon have been very good friends. Together with Dale she showed us places where normally no tourists are. During the last days I was even able to sleep in the house of her good friend May. Thanks to Marta I slept not only in a house of (kind of) locals, I also was cooking a swiss dish for a group of people there, I went canyoning, we took bathes in natural hot pools and we camped on the beach of the lago Lanquihue. Thanks to her I also had to look for Luna, the little daughter of Piere and Constanza during their absence and I had to fix their computer as well (both was fun doing so).

We spent hours and hours talking about life, love and relationships. I don’t know many that strong, independent and open minded people like her. I enjoyed every minute being together.

I met Marta again ten months later on Costeño Beach in Colombia and we spent some wonderful days together.

Unforgettable: Dancing Salsa on the beach of Puerto Varas after the New Year’s Eve, people standing around and watching us. Eunjung (Korea)

A beautiful smile and a quick-witted brain. We met in El Calefate in Argentina but we got to know each other better in the Torres del Paine National Park in Chile where I discovered a wonderful, open minded and interesting person which made me changing my travel plans quite a bit so stay more time together. So after TdP we met again in Bariloche couchsurfing with a few students and later in Buenos Aires where we danced tango together. We spent hours and hours hiking trough parks, swimming in rivers, walking trough Cities, grilling meat, starring at the stars and talking together.

We said physically hello and goodbye for four times on this trip and each goodbye was getting more and more difficult. Eunjung is a person I wanted to put in my backpack to have her with me all the time and to not have to let her go.

Unforgettable: Camping in the wild near lago espejo chico in Argentina with the most beautiful starry sky I’ve ever seen in my life! Natalia (Russia / France)

Alone in Salvador, I didn’t want to eat alone in a restaurant. So I walked more or less trough the city looking for somebody to go for dinner with. I saw this girl sitting on a park bench reading her travel guide. From the moment asking her to have a drink we spent the next two days together until she had to go back to Rio. Although of the fact that two days is not a lot, I have the feeling that I got to know a wonderful person to whom I would like to be friend for a long long time. We shared special and beautiful moments talking, walking and just being together.

Unforgettable: looking at her,how she is sitting alone on the park bench. Hesitating to ask her because of my shyness and finally nevertheless speaking to her … Barbara (Brazil / Italy)

I met Barabara at a CS-Meeting in Salvador de Bahia in Brazil. I was looking for a couch and she invited me to her shared flat to stay there for a few days. We didn’t do too many touristy things Nevertheless we spent an unforgetable time strawling trough the university, going to concerts, playing (dancing) carpoeira, cooking together and having long talks. Thanks to Barbara I felt kind of home in Salvador.

Unforgettable: After not having real good pasta for several months, Barbara made home-made pasta bolognese in her flat in Salvador. Nicole (Switzerland)

I met Nicole in the Canyon del Colca in Peru and we decided to travel together because we had the same plans. Beside Arequipa we visited Cusco, Machu Picchu, the Sacred Valley, Huacachina and Pisco together. She is the only travel mate from Switzerland I stayed with for quite a while. Talking to here was always interesting, somehow we are very similar but at the same time very different. So we had a lot of fun and discussions together – this time in Swiss German . Looking back I just felt very confortable being with here.
Nicole is the only one I’m going to meet again for sure – in the meantime she lives in the same city as I do in Switzerland. I’m looking forward to meet and to exchange some thoughts.

Unforgettable: Buying all the necessary ingredients for making Pisco Sour (Pisco, Sugar, Lemon, Egg, Cinamon) and mixing the drink later in the Hostel. It tasted incredible good and I guess it would have been enough for six! But it turned out that we were alone …. Juliane und Marcel (Germany) 

I used to make mean jokes about boring couples that are backpacking. Sticking together and not interested in any social interactions. Not so Juliane and Marcel. I met them first in Ecuador in the Guayabeno Natural Reserve and from then we travelled together, separated and met again a few times over a period of five months. It was always fun to be on the road with them, camping, playing cards, dancing merengue and sharing books. They are away from home for more than two and a half year, so they always knew a interesting story to tell.

Unforgettable: Bumping into each other by accident in Granada, Nicaragua. They insisted sleeping in a better Hotel with good services instead of the same Hostel as I did. Unfortunately they found bed bugs in their place and had to sleep beside the pool. Next day they moved into my place. Lina Maria (Colombia)

Lina was my Couchsurfing Host in Medellin in Colombia. She offered me to pick me up from the bus station and with a bright smile on her face she welcomed me so warmly to her place, it took us minutes to be best friends. I stayed much longer than I wanted and enjoyed every minute. She is such a beautiful, warm and cordial person. Although my Spanish is far from being good, we kept talking all the time. She never gave up in trying to understand me or helping me in improving my Spanish. 

Although her flat was a little outside of town, it was perfect to discover the city during day time and in the evenings often I cooked for her. She is a flamenco dancer and singer and it was a pleasure to listen to her singing while we were cooking together. We are sharing some beautiful memories and in my opinion she is a real treasure of Medellin! Being able to spend time together with this wonderful girl was a great gift to my trip.

Unforgettable: Lina got invited to a birthday party from a good friend on a finca outside of Medellin and she offered me to join her. It was a party which lasted the whole weekend and I will never forget the moment where we were sitting on the terrace late in the night. A small group, everybody in a circle completely quiet, Lina in the middle singing Flamenco a cappella. Adriana (Colombia)

I didn’t spend that much time with Adriana in real life. Although she is from Cali and we also first met in Cali using the CS website, we mainly spent one beautiful weekend together in Bogota. Beside that we have been and still are talking for hours about life and love using facebook. Talking with her is kind of special, because she is able to speak Spanish, English and German, so we use more or less all three languages together.

Unforgettable: Going out with Adriana in Cali speaking three different languages all evening. I guess the waiter must have been wondering

Not very often I changed my travel plan because of somebody. For Valieria I did. I met her first in Villla de Leyva, we only talked one evening together, the next day she went to Bogota and I spent more time in Villa de Leyva. Somehow we stayed in contact and, looking back, luckily we decided to meet up again in Taganga and to go together to the Parque National Tayrona.

Valeria is such a wonderful and warm hearted girl.
Being together with her in this beautiful national park, the time passed much to fast. We talked, walked and swam together. Sitting at the beach, looking out to the sunset, not talking any word but understanding each other very well: priceless! 

Unforgettable: Sleeping in my cheap Paraguayan (hecho en China) single layer tent in the Parque National Tayrona. In the middle of the night it started pouring. We tried to ignore that fact as long as possible. So basically until everybody and everything was more or less completely wet. Then, still pouring, we had to move everything under a roof (where the restaurant was in daytime) and go back to sleep.   Yovanka (Costa Rica / Venezuela)

Sometimes when you meet somebody for the first time you have no Idea how it will turn out. So with Yovanka. I met her on a boat tour in Bocas del Toro in Panama. We didn’t even talk very much on the tour itself, but somehow I invited her to our Hostel for the evening because she stayed alone in a boring normal Hostel with no social environment. She told me later, that this was her first contact with backpackers and that she had to revise her opinion about them. Beforehand she thought that all backpackers are dirty and smelly

That’s how we got in contact. Later on I wrote her an email if she can recommend any place in San Jose, where she lives, to stay and she invited me to her house.

We spend some amazing time together in San Jose, totally different than expected. We talked hours and hours about happiness, sense of life, money, culture and all this things. She remembered me so much at myself!

Thanks to Yovanka I also got to know a bit of the Venezuelan culture although I didn’t stay in this Country. Talking about her home she definitely made me wanting to go there.

Unforgettable: Being with Yovanka at a huge Venezuelan party in San Jose in Costa Rica. Dancing the while night Merengue and Salsa. I loved it. Thanks! Ari (Nicaragua)

Ari is an amazing girl. I asked her once, where she would like to live in the world if she could choose. Her answer was “India”. Not what I would have expected. Coming from a poor country like Nicaragua I would more or less expect something like USA or Europa, but not another poor country. Her explanation was conclusive but nevertheless surprising. That tells a lot about her: Open minded, well educated, creative and thinking out of the box. All of this in combination with a wonderful smile and tons of positive energy makes her such a lovely person.

We spent plenty of time together in Esteli in Nicaragua and went together to the Somoto Canyon up north close to the boarder to Honduras. She is definitely that kind of person that once you’ve met her, you don’t wanna let her go again.

Unforgettable: Hiking up a hill out of Esteli for having a good view. From up there we discovered on of the most beautiful rainbows I’ve ever seen.

Normally I tried to use one of my own pictures. If I was not able to find one I used facebook as a source …
