CURRENT MISSION

Planning a 2-month European trek & meeting nice, interesting people

ABOUT ME

First off, I should admit I've rewritten this description about 3 times. I am an open book and curious about people and excited about CS but I can't seem to summarize me, then Eben, then us together in a nicely-finessed paragraph.

So for a basic rundown:
We live for experiences - very curious souls. We laugh a lot and enjoy finding the fun in daily routines and pursuing all sorts of adventures. Neither one of us cares to be strapped to a desk and we always love to learn.

We're excited to meet people along our trip - so please contact us if you want to know more!

PHILOSOPHY

Live it up! Look for the good in every situation, always move forward. Love life and those in your life. Don't take anything for granted.

Be happy!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We're new to CS, so we are still in the pre-travel, networking phase of our involvement.

We don't have any couchsurfing experience yet, but hope to soon! I (Allie) have plans to go to CS events with my sister in London and am hoping to set up a variety of CS stays during out trip around Europe.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I remember being at camp when I was probably 10, I was lying in the middle of an open field and staring at the sky. There was a meteor shower. I could see the Milky Way perfectly and I counted 27 shooting stars that night. It was incredible.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always up to talk. I like to learn, I like to share. I'll be interested to learn about anything I'm unfamiliar with and hopefully be able to bring some thoughtful insight to some things I do know about.
