Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To soak it all up and share what we´ve got!
ABOUT ME
We like things that make people smile, sigh, and hug.
things like dancing, butter, laughter, wine, soul-tickling music, the beach, talking late into the night, delicious FOOD, building forts (kate's specialty), laughing at our own language missteps, books, delicious (artesanal, usually) beer, sharing.
As a couple traveling its hard to describe both of us, but you'll just have to meet us to find out the rest!
PHILOSOPHY
Let the lover be disgraceful, crazy, absent-minded. Someone sober will worry about events going badly. Let the lover be. -Rumi
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
We're still only CS infants, but our experiences have been very positive and we can't wait to host people when we get settled again.
What we expect from other couchsurfers-just a welcome spirit.
What you can expect from us-friendship and probably a bottle of wine or good beer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
For Ben-following the word 'Nuyorican' from a textbook in his Freshmen year of college to the Nuyorican Poet´s cafe in Greenwich Village, Manhattan three years later.
For Kate-Backpacking solo around Europe at 19...something that was equally amazing was visiting Morocco. And all its many colors...
