About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to share with others the resources we've been blessed with

ABOUT ME

We're married over 32 years w/three great adult children, an awesome daughter-in-law, and two exceptional grandkids, but none live with us anymore. So it's quiet here, and we'd love to have those beds used and hear the sound of young voices...

PHILOSOPHY

We believe that our blessings, our resources, our lives take on much greater meaning when shared.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Met some couchsurfers while visiting son in Uganda, and realized we want to be a part of this community, and have hosted several groups and individuals since.

Interests

People, places that make up our world

  • traveling
  • volunteering

Music, Movies, and Books

Contemporary and traditional praise music, classic rock; comedy, drama, documentary; and any books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We've seen barriers broken down; cultural, generational, religious... We've visited many places in our lifetime, but our recent experiences in Uganda were as life changing as anything to date...
Beth: I walked the Camino de Santiago with our daughter, more than 500 miles across northern Spain

Teach, Learn, Share

Without relationship it's difficult to teach or learn. If there is relationship, there can be true give and take. The skills we've learned have been devoloped from our experiences more so than from any institution.

Countries I’ve Visited

Barbados, Belize, Cameroon, Canada, Germany, India, Israel, Italy, Jamaica, Mexico, Spain, Tanzania, Uganda

Countries I’ve Lived In

Cameroon, Ghana, Uganda, United States
