We live, we let live, and we try to have a good time while we do it.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting when our situation allows it. We have two small kids right now, so we can't always accommodate guests, but we can at least help out with some ideas of what to do around town.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We've had great experiences with several different people staying with us. We have yet utilize the CS network while traveling, but eagerly anticipate our first experience to be hosted!

Algo increíble que he hecho

Chris: I've been to a sweet cheese factory in Switzerland - you never saw such Appenzeller!

Becky: I hiked up to the top of a volcano, and since it was a clear night, I could just barely see something red and glowing inside. I would have been scared if not for the fact that I'd been drinking Pájaro Azul.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

If you stay with us, you could potentially learn about computers and electronics, Spanish, cooking, sourdough bread, and how to make mozzarella cheese. You might also go on a mushroom walk, or possibly visit something of national importance.
