CURRENT MISSION

To get as many people on our couch as possible! Haha - just kidding! We are hoping to have a comfortable environment for those who want to spend some time in Houston.

ABOUT ME

We are both passionate about the arts and enjoying new experiences, which has led to our travels. We live in a roomy duplex and want to allow other people to do the same, comfortably and worry free. We are both very reliable and trustworthy people. We both enjoy bike riding, music, learning new things, photography/video, understanding other people and culture, BBQing for friends, and simply enjoying life.

PHILOSOPHY

Be respectful, honest, open-minded, helpful and forgiving.

Interests

Music! I love learning about new bands and musicians. Photography and art making is right up a the top of the list as well.
