My fiance, Dustin, and I are great lovers of travel and meeting people. We have been together for almost two years, and are looking forward to getting married.

We are done with the traditional American life. Dustin has worked and lived all over the US and I want to do the same. My job is easily done from my laptop and he is a professional residential painter with 20 years of experience.

We love fishing, music, cooking & eating great food, movies, reading and getting to know people from all walks of life. Together we have 6 kids ranging from 7 - 23. The school-age kids are in private school so we won't have them with us most of the time, but occasionally will head back to Missouri to scoop them up and take them on an adventure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We want to live a much slower pace of life, breathe fresh air and enjoy life more in the moment. We want to meet up with genuine, down to earth people and share stories, dreams, experiences on the road of life.

We are both easy going, fun-loving and peaceful.

We appreciate the beauty of our environment, the taste of a fish pulled straight from the ocean an hour earlier, and the warmth of the sun on our skin.

We are free-spirited and look to meet people who are the same.

Music, Movies, and Books

70's, Country, 80's rock, folk, reggae, blues, jazz, cover bands, soul music...we'll listen to just about anything. We ❤️ music!!

We love to dance, too!

Same with movies...almost anything goes! (Except I don't like horror 👎 but Dustin does so if you do, then he'll watch with you!).

As far as books go we like to read about other places and the adventures of other travelers. Dustin recently read a book about a woman who traveled to Australia that really got in his soul.
