We are a family of three (daughter is 11yo) from Colorado in the USA. We are taking a year to travel in Central and South America (Jul 2016). We plan to travel slowly to really get to learn about the culture, food and people and language. I am a foodie, so love to experience local cuisines and markets and even learn some cooking techniques along the way.

We would love to meet other people and families as part of our travels through couchsurfing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to meet and connect with people from around the world in a more personal and real way. I'm brand new to couch surfing.

Upon our return to the US, we would love to host fellow travelers.

Interests

Just about anything food! Making it, feeding people, learning new cooking styles and techniques, and of course eating it! I especially love baking.
