ABOUT ME

I live in Long Beach, CA with my partner of five years Amy. In case you haven't figured it out yet, we are a same-sex couple living in a queer friendly town. We have a wiener dog that rules our house, and therefore if you are allergic to dogs or don't like them, our couch is not for you. We are politically active, socially responsible, fun, intelligent human beings.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't Sweat the Small Stuff.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
