We have a passion for travelling and being outdoors. we're chilled out, easy going and can even cook!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We have hosted several times now at our home and hosted a CS meetup in Ulverston with other local hosts, We have now surfed eight times in England, Israel, India and Jamaica.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have couch surfed in a few countries now and it's an experience that can not be beaten. it's amazing how generous and welcoming strangers can be.
When we can, we host here in the uk and hope this goes some way to replicate all the positive experiences we have had as surfers.
