We started a couchsurfing profile together for our Canada-US roadtrip in 2010 and have had so many awesome experiences. We mainly share this profile for when we travel together but also use it separately too. We became great friends because we share the passion/addiction/bug/enthusiasm and love for travelling and seeing what's 'out there'!

PHILOSOPHY

Travel. Learn. Discover. Experience. Appreciate.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Livi: I have surfed more than hosted, which I hope to rectify now that I am living in central London with a spare sleeping area and couch. We try to use CS everytime we travel as it plays so much in to the experience and adventure...and we spread the CS word and encourage others to join.
