We were married in October 2006, and then left the country in February 2007 to serve in the United States Peace Corps (and where we learned about CouchSurfing). We spent 2 1/2 years in Romania working and living in the small town of Drobeta Turnu Severin. After our service, we traveled for 2 months through Europe to see the sights before heading back home. We're now living in Seattle, WA with our little dog Leia.

Heather has visited Mexico, Canada and many parts of the United States. Justin has traveled to China, Mexico and around the U.S. We've couchsurfed through more than 13 different countries on three different continents! We're an easy going couple who are interested in unique experiences and exploring different places. We feel there's no better way to do this than staying with people all over the world!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Back in Romania we hosted some absolutely WONDERFUL people & we had an awesome time playing the surfer. It's been amazing to make connections from so many different places with so man amazing human beings. There are tons of great people out there & you can really get to know them well by sharing food and comfort. We've surfed, and we've hosted, so we understand both sides of the experience!

兴趣

Heather likes cooking, protecting the environment and listening to world music. She also enjoys yoga, camping and crocheting. Justin likes eating spicy food, roasting coffee, brewing beer and fighting for social justice. We both love volunteerism, open minds, and wonderful people who participate in CS!
