Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
We came, we saw, we cycled Europe, and decided Zurich was the Place to Be! Now onto the meeting fabulous people bit!
ABOUT ME
We are a newly married couple who have quit our jobs back home and rented out our apartment, all in favour of the slow(er!) paced life of camping and cycling around Europe. Duncan is an avid cyclist, and Joh is still learning (after 5000km - beats me!). We are not major party-goers, but definitely enjoy a good time and love intelligent conversation.
Joh is a creative, musical and philosophically minded person, while Dunc is more of a logical, goal-oriented problem solver. This of course makes for an exciting partnership, where we both are constantly teaching and learning from each other.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
On our recent cycle tour through Europe we really enjoyed occasionally swapping our tent for some real solid walls and a ceiling! Now we're in Zurich we're super keen to host travellers ourselves, and we are also really excited at the prospect of meeting the locals :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
We've surfed a handful of times and it's been all positive for us, where hopefully we have enriched their lives as much as they have ours. It makes us eager for more! Regularly catch up with our hosts and hope to meet some more travellers by returning the favour from our new home in Zurich.
