CURRENT MISSION

Being lovers of different cultures, we want to bring other cultures to our door (and couch).

ABOUT ME

We are drawn to CS because we are very into building community in new and creative ways. Each of us has an interest in other cultures too. Our family includes big dogs and a cat...a gentle caution for those with allergies or fear of big, barking dogs :)

PHILOSOPHY

Each day we are given the opportunity to recreate ourselves...hopefully growing into better versions of our own unique selves. I want my headstone to read: Work in progress.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We really love hosting on a regular basis and couchsurfed through India February '09 and Germany and Poland in '11... more recently Austria, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Argentina ... We happily host more than we surf and have made several lifelong friends (some are more like family).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Enriching! For me, sharing the CS experience with my son and daughter since they were young teens has been amazing. They are now adult CSers themselves.
