CURRENT MISSION

To find the humor in the ordinary

ABOUT ME

We are a married couple who will be packing up our lives in Boston and moving to the SF Bay Area in mid-June. We are hoping to go on a month long road trip across parts of the US and Western Canada. We like to think of ourselves as funny, adventurous, and outgoing. But we are also two different people with separate interests! For instance, Jaime loves food, animals, and yoga. Tim loves music, talking, and ice hockey.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others as they wish to be treated (unless they want to be treated poorly).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We love meeting new, interesting people and hope that CS is another opportunity to do so. We are willing to open up our futon in our new apartment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We don't have a lot of experience through CS, but have plenty of experience staying in hostels, camping, and meeting new friends while traveling.

Interests

The world around us, learning, cooking, traveling, sports, music, books, spending time with people that we love, community, and napping.
