Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
World domination, one step (couch) at a time.
ABOUT ME
Sarah says: "If Andre were an animal, he would be a giraffe."
Andre says: "Sarah is a lot like a llama."
Sarah says: "I don't think I'm anything at all like a llama."
(Sarah and Andre both think the animal thing is a little too cutesy.)
PHILOSOPHY
No bullshit! Okay, maybe a little bullshit, as long as it's entertaining.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
We hope to meet some neat people. And maybe crash on a couple of couches during our travels...
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Andre slept on his buddy Travis' couch for a few weeks, and now all of his junk mail goes to Travis, which is pretty sweet!
Interests
BBQ chef-ing (Andre), BBQ eating (Sarah), surfing (Andre), sunbathing (Sarah), hiking, cartoons, drinking beer, tasty Mexican food (plentiful in Southern California), exploring, general buffoonery (mostly Andre), oh and maybe bring an instrument and we can jam out a little...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
We saw a neat snake the other day!
Teach, Learn, Share
Andre: I've personally given this a lot of thought. I'm a teacher, so teaching is a big part of my life and my teaching philosophy reflects my personality in a lot of ways. I think that (not to toot my own horn or anything) teaching is one of the most important things a person can do. Not only that, but I try to constantly learn as well. So I think that has a lot to do with how I interact with people. I try to learn as much as I can from them as well as offer what I can to them. Maybe that's too heavy and philosophical. Hey, I have an extra board... I can teach people how to surf!
