CURRENT MISSION

With my girlfriend, Madison, our mission is to meet awesome people and to be crazy wacky spontaneous while backpacking. We also just wanna spread good vibes throughout.

ABOUT ME

Hi All- This is acting as a joint account with my wonderful wife, Madison. We are super easy going and take pride in being respectful and courteous to those around us. We are both great at reading people and situations and making the absolute best of everything! We fit into almost any environment, we are looking to meet great people and to have amazing experiences. We are the type of people that make everything more fun and bring everybody up with us! Sound good to you? :P

That's a tad bit about us, now we're going to share some of our own thoughts about ourselves.

Hey, I'm Dustin, I love joking around and making situations light and definitely more interesting. I love meeting all kinds of people because you truly never know what you're going to get when you take the time to get to know a person. Often I'm floored by people I wouldn't expect to be, and when I give them the chance I often learn so much from them. It's important to me to treat everyone equally. Diversity is amazing!!

I enjoy many sports and in general I just like being outside. Oh, and for the record, I'm a major Liverpool Fc fan... Madison is now too :). To make money, I work as a Hydrometric Technician which means I spend most of my time by the creek :).

As for couch surfing, I'm so excited. I have a feeling Madison and I are going to meet so many like minded people and couch surfing just might end up being the highlight of our trips. Can't wait to get started!

Alright Madison, you're up!

haha.....

Hey :) my name is Madison and I am super excited about this couch surfing thing, it is such an amazing idea for affordable and authentic travelling! So much of what we look for in our travels is for it to be the real experience of the country and the culture that we are visiting. I want to do, eat, breathe what the locals do! When I experienced culture shock for the first time I was so thrilled. It is such an amazing feeling to be totally blown away by your surroundings and to be acting as a sponge just soaking it all in, love it!!

I feel like I have also learned a lot about myself in the last couple years.... I have learned to be better at loving, not only to my husband, but to my family, my friends, and to the space around me. I know that my yoga endeavors over the last year has helped with this! Yoga is such a wonderful practice for focus for reflection and for strength, I feel that all of these are important parts of every day life, if you want to be happy of course :)

I can be a very passionate person and I am getting better at pursuing those things that catch my interest and that make me happy. I totally feel that no one is going to make your decisions for you and if you want to accomplish something in life, you just have to get after it!

I have a wonderful cat Zoe who really and truly is the best cat in the world (yes I know everyone says this about their cats lol!) I love all animals and the earth, such a beautiful planet we are not taking care of!

Thanks for taking the time to read our blurb! Can't wait to meet you!

PHILOSOPHY

"Live to be happy", we believe is so important. Its such a simple sentence and is easier said than done but something we work at all the time.

"Why not?" :) Meaning, why not try something once. How do you know if you like or dislike something if you don't try it even once. Plus, you're life will become so much more interesting and a bonus is you'll learn so much about yourself. Try it!

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Once we get more experience from surfing we will definitely be hosts for people in the future. Currently we are surfing!! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just getting started, but we can't wait to make many couch surfing memories. We are lucky to have a few friends with extensive couch surfing experience and because of their overwhelmingly positive vibes and stories how could we resist?! Can't wait to get our own experiences!

Algo increíble que he hecho

Dustin-Moved to Scotland for a year.
Madison-Traveled southeast Asia for 2 months

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Teach-Dustin can teach some cool soccer skills and if you have three things around your place to juggle, that too. Madison has some pretty cool gymnastic tricks she can teach as well and if you're not the flippy, floppy, jumping kind, she can teach you how to make a pretty cool friendship bracelet.

Learn-Oh there's so much, let's see who and what we come across.

Share-hopefully a friendship.
