Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING We are unofficial members of several unofficial groups. Our groups do silly things like pirate raids, bunny rabbit pub crawls, croquet with sledge hammers and bowling balls and all manner of Portland weird. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE We've met some amazing people in our years hosting on Couchsurfing. Having friends visit over the years we keep our home friendly and open. Once we stopped to help some stranded motorists and ended up hosting their family for a few days while they arranged to get back to their home state. We kept in touch and still exchange holiday cards from time to time.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
We'll have to think about that and get back to you. It's been a crazy life full of amazing things.
Teach, Learn, Share
Joe can teach you about growing dahlias and the beers of Oregon. Aurora can teach you about photoshop, video editing and crash course costuming for pub crawls and events. We would both like to learn about ways to live on the cheap, travel more and intentional communities.
What I Can Share With Hosts
We're both good cooks. We'll help out wherever we can. What do you need?
My Interests
Good food, music, travel, dogs, costuming, pub crawls, art and culture.
