CURRENT MISSION

To remind ourselves how small the world is and to keep making it smaller.

ABOUT ME

We are a young, married couple living and working (and eventually planning on going back to school) in D.C. We really love living here. There is a ton of stuff to do and D.C.ers (we think) are pretty friendly. We've both traveled and lived all over the world, including Europe, Asia, Africa and the South Pacific Islands. We speak (kind of) five languages between the two of us and are always interested in practicing what we know.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
