We are Matthew, Rachel, Phoebe, and Reuben. We also have two dogs Blue and Toby! Matthew is from Florida, Rachel is from England, and we met in the UK. The children, Phoebe and Reuben, were born in the UK, but we’ve lived in both countries over the years. We love people. We host more than we surf but enjoy the opportunity to surf when we get it!
I’m visiting America for a wedding of a friend living in Cincinatti and whilst across the pond I’m taking the opportunity to travel round. I’ve been fortunate enough to travel a lot of the world with some recent highlights being WWOOFing on a farm in Sweden, walking the Camino Portugues and spending 5 weeks in Japan on a medical exchange programme. However, I’ve never been couch surfing before and am very eager to join the community!
I am a medical doctor by profession and scuba diver by passion. I teach and train undergraduate and postgraduate students in medicine and related areas. The cutting edge research in genetic and physiological basis of human thinking, emotions and behaviour fascinates me and I try to be a part of it. I am a great fan and follower of contemporary political and social studies. Photography, International Travelling, Hill Walking, Playing Table Tennis & Tennis, Reading and Listening to Music are some of my hobbies. I feel as a person I am somewhat reserved but certainly not boring. I am easy to talk to and tend to communicate effectively with people from all backgrounds. For me life is a perpetual learning process propagated through seeking of knowledge & experience, introspecting, self reflecting and developing of empathy towards others. These are the essentials elements to develop insight, foresight, wisdom and a better sense of presence in the world. We generally tend to live at a superficial level but there are always deeper meanings to what we think and do; it’s just the matter of finding them :) I am doubly vaccinated against CoVID19 and have recently received my booster dose as well :)
Hi! We’re Julia and Tom, a British couple who have recently finished a 19,000 km cycling adventure from Singapore to London. 🚴♀️🚴♂️ Our journey took us through South East Asia, India, Central Asia, the legendary Pamir Highway, and Europe. For us, cycling is ultimate freedom and brings so much connection. It allows us to experience the world at our own pace, discover hidden gems, and meet amazing people along the way. We both live for an active lifestyle and love pushing ourselves with triathlons, rock climbing, trail running, and road trips in our self-converted campervan (a project we started during lockdown). Beyond adventure, we’re passionate about protecting the planet. As climate activists and vegans, we strive to live sustainably and leave a positive impact wherever we go. We’re easygoing, social, and love hearing inspiring stories from the people we meet on the road. We're looking to give back to the CS community after receiving so much kindness from people across the world. Looking forward to sharing good conversations, and hopefully, some great plant-based meals too! Happy cycling :) Julia & Tom - Sheffield, UK.
