We are a couple born on opposite ends of the world (myself in California and Mary, my wife, in China), who first met on my first trip to Asia 10 years ago. We both haven't looked back, and ever since we have been travelling and exploring this beautiful world, with two tiny children in tow!

In the summer of 2024 we moved to Armenia, a beautiful country where life is simple. It also allows us to explore the Silk and Roman roads more in depth!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be fully immersed in the culture of the country (hotels can't offer this). We hope to share our love of this world to whoever may host us.

Interests

We both love photography, hiking in the outdoors, writing stories of the places we visit, and enjoying a good cup of coffee with good friends :)

We’ve also explored more than 50,000 miles along the Silk Roads over the past 9 years, where we created an interactive journey on our website seen here: intofarlands.com

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Me and my wife were on a walk in the jungle of Nepal when we were chased by a sloth bear for ten minutes. Luckily, we escaped the incident with nothing except a good story :)
