About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Love, Learn, Live, Give

ABOUT ME

We are a mellow peaceful couple from Ventura, CA. We have been gypsying around California and are so happy to have found home in Arcata!!

We do some school, some work, and are dedicated to self education and life living.
The details of "all about us" is much more interesting in person.

PHILOSOPHY

We are on the atheist side of agnostic and set out to love everyone. Our dedication is to peace (or something like it) and total respect of the planet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We joined as a way to network with great people in Arcata, CA- at the time "our soon-to-be new home town". We would of course love to network with great people worldwide. We have hosted all sorts of awesome folks in Monterey when we lived there and have had a stellar time at couch surfing events and parties in Arcata.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

2008 has been a blast! we have had invaluably fun CS times.
We surfed:
Nate- Arcata. We bump into him or his people all the time!

Music, Movies, and Books

Conversations with couch surfers have been so crucial to our reading choices. Bring a book you like and maybe we can trade something?

The best music in our space is the music created in our space. We would love to jam with you.

Teach, Learn, Share

We do not own a television. Bring your art, music and tantalizing conversation.
