We both love to travel. Laura spent a semester living in Swansea, Wales, and fell in love with seeing the world. After marrying Jason, she sucked him into this crazy world of travel and hosting and couch surfing and paying it forward.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are on Couchsurfing because we want to live in a world where people aren't afraid of everything and are willing to help each other. We believe in paying it forward and getting to experience the world one new friend at a time!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Driving services, a (mini) tour of Gainesville and good food. Guest get a private bedroom with a queen bed, airbed and extra blankets available, and semi-private bathroom in the hallway.

We prefer to only take people when we have time to be good hosts. We want to make sure we get to know our Couchsurfers and can help make your stay in Gainesville as enjoyable as possible, whether you are just traveling through or want to experience Florida Swamp Country!
