Hello! We are Sarah and David, and our 1.5 year old son is Spencer. We're American, but traveling as a family all over the world -primarily in SE Asia. We've lived in four US states, South Africa for two years, and in Luxembourg for two years before that. We love to travel and would love to meet fellow travelers

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We like to meet other travelers and hosts of travelers. We've done a bit of hosting ourselves and have really enjoyed our time with those passing through South Africa.
