Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We house you~ you house us~ we exchange homes. We all have fun adventures!

With three small kids, we tend to be sand box tourists more than museum tourists. A shore line, a shovel, and nature, and the kids are happy. Seeing the world one playground at a time.

We have a free standing guest house with two single beds. You share our living room, kitchen, and one bathroom. We also have a guest room in the house that can sleep two more, and a big play room that can house sleeping bags or cots.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Traveled summer 2010 and stayed with a people we found via couch surfer family welcome group, and hosted some in the Spring 2011. Been doing couch surfer exchanges with the extended community for years, now with the help of the internet, the wider world.
