Hello all! We are two sisters born and raised in the Pacific Northwest, in the United States. We have been lucky enough to be exposed to starry skies and accessible hiking right outside of our door. This has allowed us to really appreciate and savor nature. Other hobbies we enjoy include cooking from scratch with local ingredients, interacting with new cultures and learning new languages. Both of us have worked in the service industry, so we are accustom to appreciating all kinds of people.

Haley - is turning 24 this September and has spent the last 7 years in New York City working for a fashion start-up company. She enjoys hosting events, meeting new people and try new things. She recently returned from a 2 month long trip in Mexico, where her passion to explore the world only grew.

Sydne - is 22 and a recent graduate from the University of Washington with degrees in Spanish and International Studies. She has been a Spanish tutor for the last 2 years, and enjoys learning and teaching new languages. She has casually been learning Italian for the past 6 months and hopes to improve during our stay in Italy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My sister and I are taking a trip throughout Europe in the summer of 2018. We are hoping to get to get a locals perspective because they know their city the best. We expect to be out and about 90% of time and basically are just looking for a place to sleep. We are extremely respectful and understand the importance of being conscientious.
