Hi friends! We are Jess and Tony. In our backpacks we bring with us two spunky daughters, a one year-old and a three year-old. They are what we like to call adapta-babies, and have always been so good about bouncing around from house to house, country to country with us. Tony and I have both been traveling since we were 17 years old. We met in Germany early 2007 and have been wandering together ever since.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

On our adventures we have been fortunate enough to meet people along the way who have been so wonderful and hospitable. We have learned so much from these beautiful souls who have taken us into their homes. It is our favorite aspect of traveling.
Life as wanderers has changed a lot now that we have children but we are not willing to let that stop us from tasting the world. We were once two brave stealth-campers, jumping from place to place as quickly as we wanted to. Our movements these days are a bit slower-paced and slightly (very slightly) better planned.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

It is difficult to choose just one thing. Our lives have been exciting and fulfilling. One memory we are particularly fond of is hiking in 50 degrees Celsius through the Moroccan Riff Mountains, while fasting from both food and water for a month during Ramadan. It was an empowering experience that we would absolutely repeat.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

The one thing we can count on to provide are smiles from our sweet children. They bring joy to everyone around them and are always good for a laugh.
