Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I couch surfed back in the day in Italy and throughout Ireland and loved it. All my experiences with couchsurfing have been very positive, and ever since then I have always looked forward to becoming more involved in the couchsurfing community, Would love to host, attend meet ups, or stay at someone's place.

My Interests
My husband and I love getting outside. We dabble in skiing, mountain biking, road biking, climbing, hiking and kayaking. I am not the best at any of those things but being active and outside makes me happy. I love immersing myself in the culture. The touristy "must sees" are important, but to me what really matters, is experiencing how the people live, hearing their perspectives, and learning about their lives. I enjoy mission trips as well. I have traveled to Panama, Nicaragua, Honduras, Dominican Republic for mission trips. I also lived in Uganda and working for an engineering non-profit for a few months.
