CURRENT MISSION

Host families with kids and international travelers so our kids can experience different cultures.

ABOUT ME

We took a long break from couch surfing while we had small kids but now would like to open our homes when it works to meet people from around the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy life, be lighthearted.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Keep open hearts to everyone. We have hosted, stayed with many wonderful families, and shared experiences with family and friends.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It has been wonderful hosting people. Couchsurfing is a great theory that works in reality. It made our trip to India feel like we were part of each family we stayed with and our experience so rich. We have even traveled with and met up with couchsurfers again and again. Please mention golf so I know you read our profile.
