ABOUT ME

We're laid-back, but love to have fun too. Have 2 older kiddos at home (think pre-teen/teen) that love hosting too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We would love to host people as they find a need for our couch. We'd love to meet people from all over. In our youth, Anders has lived abroad in Germany and Janessa has done summer trips to Africa, Asia, and Central America. We both lived and volunteered in Guatemala for a year when our oldest child was two years old. We speak Spanish! We are leaving for a year-long family adventure in South America in Summer 2023.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We've love hosting and so do our kids. They might rope you into a board game-so watch out! . We've also couchsurfed as a couple and as a family and had only great experiences.
