We are Betty and John, high school sweethearts married thirty years (gag, right?) and are now empty nesters with lots of room. We travel ourselves quite a bit, and so our home is usually open - as well, we have pretty crazy busy schedules even when we're in/town. We are not far from regional rail access to Center City Philly, with connections to NYC, Boston and D.C. We are a bike or car ride (about five miles) from Valley Forge National Park and outlet and high end shopping that our European friends love to take advantage of.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We have the space, and we have three little (very old) dogs, such that if someone is a dog lover, we can always use the help and coverage to let them out occasionally when we're not around.

Interests

Travel - we have a big group of friends that we travel with often, both domestically and internationally. Hiking the National Parks and travel out West are our fav sightseeing in the states - Sturgis is our fav bike rally - however, we also do resort and fancy stuff, depending on who we're traveling with.
