Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We love connecting with interesting people and when traveling as a family, hope to host/be hosted by families with young children. We believe children should learn from each other. Lately, I've begun using couchsurfing to enhance my running adventures and it has been awesome! As I run across a state, I find CS members and stay with them - learning from my hosts about the area and the community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During our travels, both of us grownups have benefited from the generosity of families willing to open their homes and help us. We have also hosted travelers from other countries that we have met previously on our travels.

Interests

Running, hiking, camping being with friends and family, playing board and card games. Good music, good food, good times.
