Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I like to go surf some couches and like to have our couches surfed, and we´ll show you around town if time allows.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
WE LOVE IT!
Interests
We like to spend our time exploring Switzerland and always travel with our dog, if he can’t go there – we won’t go there. We like to “wild-camp” throughout Switzerland, go for hikes and cook gourmet food on our campfire. In the winter we like to ski or walk along frozen rivers. We spend a lot of time in the south part of Switzerland what is called the Ticino, and the Valais. We love to hunt for Minerals and Crystals, that makes our hearths beat higher.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most amazing thing we have done… was… We sold our Ranch and Guest Lodge we owned in the Rock Mountains, and moved to Switzerland. Our kids are both Swiss and US citizens but 8 years ago our kids spoke not a word of Swiss-German and Uschi either anymore. So we decided to move to Switzerland for 10 years, this way the kids get to know all about Switzerland and can visit perfectly high ranking public Schools and get to have a great business trade school education, what is here in Switzerland called an apprenticeship.
Our 10 years will be over in 2012 and Barry and I will be moving back to our Rocky Mountains, and the kids… who knows…? We just told them about CS, so the might become professional Cougipsy´s, hi, hi.
Teach, Learn, Share
Our daughter was the best Swiss yodeler in 2005, so you see... we can teach you to yodel, or play the Alphorn.
