CURRENT MISSION

To have a post college adventure time!

ABOUT ME

Hello! We are a couple that recently graduated from college and we are embarking on our post college journey called real life! Mainly I created this account because we are traveling to San Francisco in early September for my brothers wedding and we have blocked out two weeks for traveling in California. My roommate in college has always talked very highly of her couchsurfing experiences and I have been dying to try it out for over a year!

Here's a bit about us!

Katy I am an outgoing, enthusiastic person that likes to live a healthy lifestyle. I worked as a salesperson in high school where I learned how to talk to just about anyone (I've got stories!). I love all things awkward and I consider myself to be responsible, caring, and optimistic. I am very open and honest person that is always in the mood for a good conversation.

Brent I am a quiet easy going guy that enjoys all things snowboarding and extreme sports. Some have described my sense of humor as "snarky," and "hilarious." I spend my days photographing food for stock photography websites and on the website reddit looking at pictures of cats.

PHILOSOPHY

Katy: Do your best!

Brent: I ain't no holla back girl.
