CURRENT MISSION

Cross paths with the good people of this world

ABOUT ME

Hi. We're Jordan and Bethany. We're two twenty-somethings from small towns in New York in the USA and are currently traveling throughout South America. We have only ten weeks to see and experience as much of the continent we can. We land in March and leave in June.

We plan to just see and do as much as we can. Hopefully we can also meet fellow couch surfers to show us around their cities and towns. We'd love to be able to surf your couch but the most important thing is to meet new, fun, and good-hearted people.

I'll be checking this as we travel so if you're in South America and in our path, and want to meet up, just send a message!

As far as languages go, we're both fluent in English and my Spanish is passable although I intend to become much better at it by the time our trip ends. Neither of us can speak Portuguese unfortunately.

We look forward to meeting you!

PHILOSOPHY

Live with honor and passion, be kind, see beauty in all things, do not be afraid and try to make a difference.

Never regret a second.

"And in my life, I am not willing to trade quantity for quality."
-Steinbeck

"Is it a world to hide virtues in?"
- Shakespeare

"...where paths that have affinity for each other intersect, the whole world looks like home, for a time."
