CURRENT MISSION

Living the good life.

ABOUT ME

Born and raised in New Mexico, but lived in Shanghai for a year until July 2009. Together we have traveled around the US, Panama, Hong Kong, and China. We have been together for eighteen years and it keeps getting better. We have two children.

PHILOSOPHY

A little bit of destiny. A lot of free will. Treat people well. Eat good food.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We started hosting in Shanghai and now we host in Albuquerque when we can. We attend local monthly CS potluck and events and Nicole has helped plan and host ABQ's Couch Crash. Some wonderful CSers hosted friends for our wedding, and we finally got to be the crashers in summer 2011 in Boston and Brunswick, Maine.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

100 % positive so far. We were essentially couch surfing and hosting traveling friends (and friends of friends) before the website, but this makes it so much easier and more secure.
