We are a couple from Boston who loves to travel together and meet new people. Noah is a psychology professor and Rachel is an art teacher at a public school and an MFA student. We are very adventurous and excited to see new places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Noah has used couchsurfing for touring Europe and North America with his band and comedy troupe and found it to be the most rewarding way to travel and meet like-minded people. Both of us love to experience new places with the help and guidance of locals wherever we travel, and this is a great way to do so!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: We are both pretty nerdy about music. If you care, we can talk your ear off.

Movies: Never seen one

Books: We both like biographies and graphic novels. Right now Rachel is reading Commonwealth by Ann Patchett and Noah is reading The Real Andy Kaufman Revealed by Bob Zmuda.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We both stayed with a tribe in the Amazon rainforest for 5 days working with a family on their land. The first night we were there we were covered in Anacondas and had to snort tobacco juice as part of a welcome ceremony.
