CURRENT MISSION

Get out of middle America and travel some cool places and meet some cool people!

ABOUT ME

After spending the last 3 months of 2010 traveling, we are ready to take a break and bring the rest of the world to us! While Des Moines might sound like a small town in the middle of no where, it actually has a lot to offer. Stop on by, we will be happy to show you around!

PHILOSOPHY

We could learn a lot from crayons; some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, but they all have learned to live together in the same box.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We live in West Des Moines, IA and would love to provide a room for short-term couch surfers! We are only a 10-15 minute drive to downtown. But most of the cool stuff takes place out West anyway... ;-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have hosted a few people at our home in Des Moines. Dane couchsurfed once in San Francisco. Dane and I couchsurfed together in Athens, Greece.

Interests

We enjoy concerts, dinner, socializing with friends. Dane enjoys hockey and X-box, while Lacey enjoys shopping and massages, reading and of course cuddling with my puppy. We also love to travel!

Music, Movies, and Books

We enjoy comedies, action and documentary movies. Dane enjoys business and marketing books and Lacey enjoys all kinds of books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We traveled the world for 3 months with nothing but a carry-on. I would never trade the experience for anything!

Teach, Learn, Share

We want to teach others how we live, but most importantly we want to learn how others live. We have been living in a box called Iowa for all our lives and its time to get out!!!
