CURRENT MISSION

Two sisters backpacking across Europe this summer killing it non-stop

ABOUT ME

Our names are Alex and Leighna we are going to be backpacking through europe this summer and are hoping to meet some fun couch-owners that we can surf with and make new friends. We love to party and dance! And also sight-see and check out awesome local clubs and whatnot. We have Malama - that means 'respect' in Hawaiian - for the people we meet and their homes/enviornment the same as we have for our own. We are independant guests that actually clean up after ourselves and won't expect more from a host then what they WANT to give, as for us we're happy to give back in any way we can.
Leighna - A friend of mine is part of couch-surfing his name is T so i am familiar with what its all about and the overall experience, but i have never couch surfed on anyones couch ive only met couchsurfers. We are excited for our trip and if you would like to offer us a couch just send us a message! and if you would like to meet up and cruise, do the same thing!

We are both outgoing and friendly girls, We met each other on kauai four years ago and then Alex moved to Washington and then to Norway for college, and Leighna stayed on kauai mostly but also lived in Portland, Oregon for a few months. Despite the distance, we have remained best friends! We live life to the fullest (is there any other way to go about it?) by promoting positive energy and going on adventures of all sorts - geographical, spiritual, mental, and even imaginary on some occasions. We're big fans of nature and all its riches...lets try to preserve it so we can marvel at its wonders a bit longer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Anyone offering a couch I am sure will enjoy our company. We both have a sense of humor, good mood, are extrovert and surely have tales to tell :)

Leighna sat on the beach the other day and watched humpback whales breech

The same day Alexandra was in Norway after playing in the snow all day, sitting by the fire with a cup of coffee sorting the snowballs out of her hair
