Who we are:

My wife, Raychelle and I are pet-loving house sitters who are originally from the state of Indiana in the United States. Raychelle, my beautiful wife, is a pharmacist and I am her loving husband, Chris, who works in insurance sales; we both occasionally do some online adjunct teaching, too. We both have volunteered through a program called Indy Reads to help Indianapolis residents earn their high school diplomas – simply put, we love to teach and help others grow!

Raychelle and I love to travel, house sit and pet sit for folks, meet new people, experience new cultures, and hang out with our friends and family. In our spare time we visit restaurants, breweries, and wineries, read books, watch movies, and ride bicycles and motorcycles.

Our Story:

In 2004 we met through a mutual friend while in college. Over a decade later we are best friends and grow more in love every day. ☺ Life is good!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We joined CouchSurfing to meet and make memories with new friends from all over the world. Whether we are sleeping on your spare bed, grabbing a pint at a local pub, or hiking a mountain trail with you we are excited to meet up and get to know you!

We new to CouchSurfing and we're down for whatever! Got any ideas? Let's hang!

Currently, Raychelle and I are traveling through Europe for a few years, so we're not able to host anyone back in Indiana in the United States.
