About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn everything possible from the world!

ABOUT ME

My husband (Daniel) and I are a mid-20s couple who just moved back to the US after living in Korea for three years as English teachers. We're both laid back and spend most of our time going to the park playing frisbee and eating delicious food. Oh, we also love cats.

PHILOSOPHY

Peace, dude. No really. Peacefully interacting with everyone is the way-to-go. Negotiate everything. If that doesn't work, rock-scissor-paper!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We lived in Korea for three years and have hosted various friends and house sitters over the years (independently from the CS website), both while we were home and away. After living in Korea, we traveled France, Germany, and England and stayed with several couchsurfing families. It's always a great time!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We stayed with several couchsurfing hosts in France while we were traveling. Love the idea of trusting other people and getting to know strangers!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to read. Probably too much. Non-fiction about whatever I'm into at the moment (gardening, local living, peaceful relationships, history, unschooling) or classic sci-fi. H.G. Wells is my hero.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Everyday is amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can't necessarily teach French, but if you'd like to speak in French together, j'en veux bien!
