About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see the world one little town and one large (hopefully) couch at a time

ABOUT ME

We both LOVE travel of all sorts. We have been all over the world both together and seperately. If we could have any job it would be getting paid to travel. Aside from that, we love All outdoor activites like hiking backpacking snowboarding bicycling (road), distance running etc. We LOVE cooking and eating. Family dinners with the bajillion surfers in the house at any given time are the norm. If you can cook something we would love to help you make it.
In spring 2013 we added another member of the family.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We started off as rookie surfers in Europe who ran across some great people. Now we are on the other side of the coin (till our next voyage of course =) hosting all those road weary surfers. We also participate in as many of the group activities as we can. If you ever see a big group of folks out about in PDX with fake moustaches on their faces making CS look great, THAT's US! Birthplace of the fake hair face party people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have hosted and been hosted. Nothing but positives so far (knocking on electronic wood). We have a great time meeting up with our fellow CSers here in PDX and sipping local libations while talking about the cross-dressing unicyclists that will inevitably cruise by staring at us and our fake facial hair. We have cooked and eaten great food as a result of CS. Food rocks.

Let's keep it up!

Giving is getting.
An old friend once told me "It all comes back." I think he was high when he said it, but that doesn't preclude him from being right.
