CURRENT MISSION

Plan the next adventure! (and share in other's)

ABOUT ME

We are two ladies who recently returned from a 6-month adventure through Europe (June- December 2008). We'd like to meet other travelers to hear stories and get recommendations for future trips. Currently we live in Middleton, WI and we would be happy to show you around town. Since we have the space now, we hope to host travelers and share the hospitality we were shown on our trip.

PHILOSOPHY

Hmm... maybe I should have one.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We utilized couchsurfing while on our trip in Europe and had wonderful experiences. We can offer tours of town and dinner/drink/coffee to anyone coming and a place to crash.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We've hung out with the CouchSurfing crew in Madison, WI and Galway, Ireland. We've also surfed with some excellent hosts in Northern Ireland, England and France. Now we look forward to hosting!

Wasabi acts as an anti-bacterial agent- therefore rendering raw fish safe to eat (the secret to sushi)!
