ABOUT ME

We - Ryan & Pam - are embarking on a trip around Europe. Our overall goals for traveling include meeting great people, hearing and living great stories, and filling our every experience with complete newness. We are both interested in learning as much as we can about new cultures, and different ways of thought.

PHILOSOPHY

“The secret of life is in art.” ~Oscar Wilde

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far we have only stayed on couches, but would like to host people once we have more space to accommodate. We have greatly enjoyed meeting people who humbly open their homes to us, and I like to think we have made some great friends from the CS community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well... every experience has been amazing from our first experience, where Kyle, our host, showed us a completely unexpected side to in Salt Lake City, Utah, to jamming out in Indianapolis, Indiana, to Beale Street fun with Katie in Memphis, Tennesse, and everything inbetween.
