PLEASE DO NOT ASK US TO HOST MORE THAN A WEEK IN ADVANCE or TO STAY MORE THAN TWO NIGHTS! Okay, that being written, I am an archaeologist and work in 29 states, including Alaska, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. My husband is the athletics photographer for a university’s and on the road with the teams. As a photojournalist he covered fires, murders, hostage situations, and won a Pulitzer. Between the two of us, we have been to every state. We have the silliest dogs named Big (Miniature American Eskimo) and Audi (Alaskan Klee Ki). Every Couchsurfer falls in love with them and has to get a pix together. Friends say I should write a book with all the stuff we have done: two summer hikes across the Grand Canyon; crash expensive New Year's Eve parties; worked as movie extras; was an alternate for two seasons of Survivor; my love of Halloween; a Zombie for Zombie WarZ; and gone to indoor and outdoor raves. You never know when a light up skirt will come in handy!
