About Me

We live in beautiful Grey🌳Forest just outside Helotes at the northwest corner of San Antonio. We do travel A LOT, so chances of catching us at home are rare... but don't be afraid to request a stay with us. AND don't be afraid of our silly photos! We like having a good time. Laughter is always the best medicine. Laughter while traveling is even better! My husband and I wish to travel the world and we really love and enjoy being outdoors.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We enjoy meeting interesting people to gain a broader view and insight to local cultures while enjoying affordable travel. We thoroughly enjoyed our couch surfing experience in Budapest, Hungary.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We are super busy folks, so we cannot be your tour guide or drive you around... But, we are friendly and easy to get along with. We have lived in New Braunfels, Texas for over 20 years and know the area extremely well. New Braunfels is 30 miles from San Antonio and 45 miles from Austin. We can tell you quite a bit about both cities. Public transportation is not great, but Uber and Lyft are available in the area. BONUS: There are two beautiful rivers right here in New Braunfels and the amazing world famous water park: Schlitterbahn. (google it.) It is beyond fun!
