About Me

We are a married couple in our late 20's and we've been living in our sprinter van for over 2 years traveling the country. We work at RV parks or as climbing guides during peak seasons and we take a couple months off each year to meander, go mountain climbing and road biking.

As full time travelers, we love meeting new people and learning about different ways of life and philosophy. The more we travel, the more we grow to love all people!

PHILOSOPHY:
Cultivating the confidence and faith to go through life knowing that no matter what comes up, we will figure it the best solution and it will be ok.
To be able to go into the unknown over and over again and improve in some way from the experience every time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
