MADISON: I am an outgoing, open-minded lady with a curiosity for the world around me. There are very few things in this world I am not willing to try at least once, life is too short for me to be picky. I love to laugh and have a soft spot for people with a healthy sense of humor. I truly enjoy the act of giving and love to help people when they need it Being able to share my home, my time, and my knowledge with others is so fulfilling!

I studied music and theater (and a combination of the two) for 6 years but have been involved in it for most of my life. I love to sing, am a decent pianist and a mediocre guitarist. I am currently a bartender, which is actually a great job for meeting new people.

Madison's Words of Wisdom: Be yourself.

JAKE: I am happiest when I am constantly learning. I enjoy knowing how things work and how it effects it's surrounding environment. This is why traveling fascinates me, I get to learn about other cultures and their history.

I studied multiple disciplines, but the majority of my scholastic time was spent on computer science. I am currently a chief officer in a technology company of which I helped co-found. I also work for the local state government on the side.

Jake's Words of Wisdom: Reality is your brain's interpretation of external stimuli presented to it.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

We think that this is an amazing way to help people travel and it provides a great chance to experience places in a unique and much more personal way. My husband and I are excited to not only host, but very excited to couch surf ourselves! We are very open minded and kind people and are eager to be a part of this awesome opportunity.
