CURRENT MISSION

finding ourselves in the world, Ian from the air, Cris from the ground

ABOUT ME

we're 60ish, recently married (to each other), and are now starting to spend more of our time exploring the world in a way other than for business and 'vacation' travel.

Our 'home base' is Bermuda (the place where we've both lived and worked for over 30 years). We're in the process of downsizing to too small a place to host couch surfers...

PHILOSOPHY

Cris: someone once told me that the dalai lama said (quoting roughly) "the purpose of life is to have fun"... I think that's a pretty good guide to follow (as long as you wouldn't have fun causing pain to anyone else!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We're happy to meet people (or host them) for drinks or a meal... share insights, etc..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When we were in a larger place we hosted several times and once sort of accidentally found ourselves guests of a couchsurfing host in Spain!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ian paraglides; I think that's amazing... I've done it in tandem a couple of times.

The Grand Canyon is the most amazing thing I've ever seen!... but scuba diving off Cabo San Lucas comes close.
