About Me

Hi. Our names are Isaac and Chelsea, and we are currently in motion. We got hitched in an oak grove August 6, put our earthly possessions into a storage unit, and set out for a big cycling honeymoon until Christmas. Our plans are to bike the Washington Parks loop (of the ACA) and a loop in Southeast Asia (Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia). Together we've biked in Europe, Oregon, Colombia, Yosemite, and the SF Bay Area, so wanted to start the next chapter of our journey in suite. You can check out blogs of these tours here: http://www.crazyguyonabike.com/izakmo (link is external)

We are pretty low-maintenance guests. We can set up our camp stuff, cook and clean, and generally engage as much or little as you'd prefer. We seek out hiker-biker campsites as much as possible, but value connecting with the bike community too. We are omnivores, drinkers, non-smokers.

A little more about us: Isaac (33 years) is from San Diego and Vermont, and Chelsea (29) from Colorado. We have lived in San Francisco and Oakland for about 10 years. Isaac is a high school English teacher, and Chelsea is an expressive arts therapist. We have many interests, love sharing stories and having a good time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Good traveling is more than pretty pictures and unusual food. We like to couchsurf for the same reason we like to travel by bicycle: it allows us to go into new places, rather than just over them.

Interests

Bikes. Cooking. Salsa dancing. Reading. Writing. Guitar. Harmonica. Hiking. Paddling various sorts of water craft. Yoga. Art therapy. Sustainable lifestyles. Spirituality.
