ABOUT ME

Julian has also spent much of his life in the music world - first playing classical guitar and later as founder of Magpie Sound Design. Cozette is currently a teaching assistant at Harvard University in the film department. Her latest documentary film in production is a portrait of first generation farmers who run an organic dairy in New Hampshire.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In the fall of 2007 we traveled the former iron curtain border and made a short documentary film called Borderland. We couch surfed almost the entire trip and met many fascinating and generous people who opened their homes, shared their stories, and lives with us. We are forever grateful for their generosity.
