ABOUT ME

We are young twenty somethings making our way in a hectic world. In September of 2011 Eric left Portland for a Peace Corps assignment in Tameslout, Morroco. He is doing Youth Development and looks forward to learning Darija and spending the next 2 years abroad.

Alejandra continues to live and work in Portland, OR and travels a lot for herself and for work.

PHILOSOPHY

There is no way to happiness; happiness is the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We host people when we can, and we share our great love for the city of Portland and all its wonderful quirkyness. When we are traveling we love to couchsurf because of how you see the place in an entirely different light.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hoping to get more soon! We´ve hosted people in our Portland home and we've stayed with hosts in Mexico.
