CURRENT MISSION

Live a good life--and help others do the same

ABOUT ME

Denny and I enjoy life and people. As long as you are considerate and respectful, we don't care your age, sexual orientation, race, religion or politics.

We will host last minute in emergencies and if nothing else works out (be understanding of a less than ideal sleeping arrangements) except due to allergies cannot accept those traveling with an animal.

PHILOSOPHY

Maikai Ke Ola (Hawaiian for "Life is Good")

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surf, host, and spread the word

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have both surfed and hosted and love it.

With some CSers we have spent long hours in conversation,hanging out together, sightseeing, etc. Others we have hardly seen. We are open to both types of experiences, or something in between.

Lately we have been some what disheartened by how difficult it has been to find willing hosts when we travel. We continue to host nonetheless. We understand that there is something appealing about being able to monetize hosting. We continue to host via CS because we realize that the bonds that one can build through the CS community is much more valuable than the extra cash that might be gained through other apps.
