CURRENT MISSION

See the world, one park at a time.

ABOUT ME

This profile is actually for both me and my wife, pardon the double answers!
J - I like beer and sitting in parks, preferably together. I'm into simplicity and sustainability and experimental cooking and love animals. Very enthusiastic about the small things.
C - Hey, I like beer and sitting in parks, too! I'm pretty universally accepting and optimistic - wherever I am is a pretty good place to me. I'm an artist by trade and I like biking and hiking and swimming in refreshingly cold bodies of water. Also dancing and discovering the story behind people/places/things.

PHILOSOPHY

It's all about enjoying the small things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have returned to the US after two years of traveling around the world. Have met some wonderful people couchsurfing all over the place, and hope to be able to host once we have a home to host in!

Interests

J - Right now, traveling! I like picking menu items I don't recognize and walking new neighborhoods/footpaths. Hiking, rock climbing, gardening, drawing, and people-watching. Also, bicycles and compost.
C - Art, rock climbing, rugby, dancing, hiking, camping, political advocacy, reading, or talking to people. Or whatever you're doing that sounds like a fun thing to try!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking the fjords in Norway, Rock climbing in Chile, or watching the sun set over the city from our home in Seattle.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about pet medicine and like to discuss obscure psychological studies. Clara is a professional seamstress or can give you a damn fine haircut! We'd both probably cook for you.
