CURRENT MISSION

To travel the United States, we live in the day to day world of travel, seeing the new day as our personal adventure.

ABOUT ME

We both love to travel, live on the road and see new places and meet new people. Right now we have spent too much time in Detroit, Michigan, and are getting ready for our journey home to Boca Raton, Florida.

PHILOSOPHY

To live a full life, to complain less about the absence of comfort we face on a day to day living on the road. To experience places and people for what they really are, and to enjoy ourselves as we see fit, living one day at a time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently, our only participation is to seek out places to sleep while we travel the country on foot and by way of kind strangers with dependable cars and trucks. We want to meet new people in new places, and offer our kindness as a token of our appreciation, because that is really the only thing valid in this world we have to offer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

New to this experience, spent a lot of time surfing couches in California and Oregon, long before this site was ever available as a medium to connect people together for that specific purpose.

Dogs and Cats: We both love dogs and cats, but prefer to be only aquantances with them until we have a stable place to call our home.

Travel: California is a love of ours, the red woods, the numerous parks and beachs, the cities: Santa Cruz, San Francisco, Arcada.
We've seen the entire northern-west coast, from Monterey Bay California to Seattle, Washington.

We also love to play video games, eat ethnic foods, go to live musical performances, watch stand-up comedy, and just spend time with our friends at the park, playing Frisbee and volleyball. We both like bike riding too, but are bike-less at the moment.
