ABOUT ME
We LOVE to travel to new places and make new friends. We have been together for 6 years and married for 5 and life together so far has been such a fantastic journey.
We both love life and all nature has to offer so enjoy long walks in the country side or a coastal walk and any sports to do with the sea. We moved to Cornwall to be able to enjoy living a quiet simple life out in the country side....
However we also both enjoy a band on at our local pub, any live music especially music festivals and any excuse to have a dance :)
PHILOSOPHY
horses for courses
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
We are both strong believers in " helping others out" its all about the karma. What goes around comes around. Be towards others as you would wish them to be towards you.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
We absolutely love the C.S experience. When we cant travel ourselves, opening your door to a fellow traveller takes you right back in to the fun and culture of traveling.
Our favourite C.S experience to date was staying with a fantastic host in Brazil in Feb 2013 for Carnival. We had the most awesome time surrounded by other couch surfers and lots of new friends.....(ty Roberto xx)
