CURRENT MISSION

To travel, explore, and grow.

ABOUT ME

We are an adventurous couple who love to travel, meet new people, and be outside. We are currently traveling around South America and then we will work for a winter as dog sled guides in the U.P. of Michigan before thru-hiking the PCT in the summer of 2015. We are both easy-going and responsible and we love meeting new people from all over the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life without regrets...
Get after it, and soak up every moment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We are currently only participating as surfers throughout South America, but look forward to hosting once we settle in the Lake Tahoe, CA area.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Still very limited, but just had a wonderful time in Ecuador with a new couchsurfing friend! We have used "warmshowers" (same concept but for bike touring) while biking across the U.S. last year and met so many wonderful friends through that site...so we are hoping to have more couchsurfing experiences soon.

Interests

We love mountain biking, backpacking, back-country skiing, flatwater kayaking, bike touring, and just about any other activity where we're in nature having fun. We also love animals, especially dogs.
