About Me

ABOUT ME

We are married and working professionals but we spend every vacation day exploring the world. We love sports and outdoor activities like hiking, rock climbing, biking, skiing, and snowboarding. We're both laid back and easy going.

We live busy lives and it is difficult to predict when we are available so please don't request to stay at our home more than 2 weeks out. We definitely prefer to host others who host and give back to the community. Please send a personalized request.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling is our passion. We love exploring the world and meeting new people. We have met some amazing people while traveling and hope to experience new cultures through a local's perspective.
