CURRENT MISSION

We want to broaden our horizons by meeting and hosting interesting people!

ABOUT US

Well, I am a silly sort of person and my wife is wonderfully serious.
Most notably, we are real foodies. We LOVE to cook and to eat. If you visit us you'll have some great food at our house or around Richmond.

My main thing is to just have fun and laugh as much as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted in the past when I lived in Fresno CA. I had all positive experiences : ) My wife and I are looking to get into hosting people now because we have a beautiful slice of the American Experience and we would love to share it.

We currently have a guest bedroom with a bed. You will not be disappointed.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Simple things, watching the sun melt like a pad of butter on the horizon on the Gulf of Mexico. Riding a rickety old chairlift with wooden chairs up the slopes on a subzero night cuddled next to a girlfriend, feeling the connection through 8 layers of clothes. having a grilled cherry tomato explode in my mouth like a flavor bomb in Antigua, bar crawls with friends that culminate in such madness that all participants have COMPLETELY different accounts of the same night.

Teach, Learn, Share
