CURRENT MISSION

Life & the pursuit of happiness

ABOUT ME

We are one social butterfly and one laid-back engineer and world-traveler who tags along to most of the social events planned by the first person.

We are avid (but not fanatic) recyclers and try to buy everything from Goodwill or any second hand source if possible.

We also love food and anything food related :)

PHILOSOPHY

"The possibility for rich relationships exists all around you — just open your eyes, open your mouth and most importantly, open your heart."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We've hosted & been hosted several times and have been attending numerous CS events and have made a bunch of cool friends along the way.

For us, traveling is more about the people we meet, and we make every effort to connect w/local people whenever/wherever we go.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We've enjoyed every CS event & experience we've had thus far. Everyone we've met have been very open & welcoming & so willing to share & connect. They make us feel like we've been friends forever and we hope we make others feel the same way.
