Taming the Sun and the Moon

ABOUT ME

We are people from different cultures and different backgrounds, but still together - for life and love :)

Now there are four, with a ray of Sun and a slice of Moon.

PHILOSOPHY

Irina: live today and this very moment! not tomorrow or yesterday...

Jose: Life is a journey without destinations.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Irina couchsurfed twice during her trip to NYC on New York Eve 2006, and once in summer 2007 - also in NYC. Then as a couple we couchsurfed in D.C. with very cool people.

In Arkansas, we got to host a nice couple and hang out with other couchsurfers.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Irina: done! birth of a child.. and seeing her growing, of course.

Jose: Anyone driven 30 hours with a one-week-old child to Florida, on 2 hours of sleep? Me. I did that. Also, went with said child by myself to Moscow on a 20-hour plane ride. That was rough, but not as rough as the flight from Moscow to ATL, with TWO children under 2, the youngest teething at the time. I might be done w/traveling for a while.
