About Me

ABOUT ME

This is a joint profile for my wife, Cathy, and I.
We enjoy traveling, doing outdoor activities, and wish we had more time to do all of our numerous hobbies! When we are at home, we are kept company by many life forms - 2 cats, 2 guinea pigs, several fish, and lots of plants.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We have a guest bedroom on the second floor (it's in the same room that functions as a library at other times) with a knee-height inflatable double bed, two reading lamps, a reading chair, and lots of books. There is also a small TV, which, in theory, could be hooked up.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have stayed on many a couch and many a floor, but did not know about couch surfing until recently.
