My wife and I have two young children and enjoy growing closer together and making new friends. I am from a dutch dairing farming family of eight children and she grew up in a Honduran foster family. Her parents have been missionaries in Honduras for over 24 years and have fostered over 50 children. We live part of the year in the States and the other part in Honduras.

Jamie and I love to meet new people and see new places. We have found that seeing a new place and meeting the people who live there makes our experience so much more memorable which is why couch surfing interests us.
