About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience life and life's people to the fullest, while at the same time to see all that is to be seen.

ABOUT ME

I and my other (Carla and Chris) are simply often traveling, always sincere, and forever looking for the next adventure, whether that be with someone coming to take our couch (which will be a great adventure, indeed) or inhabiting someone else's for a night, in a city never before visited with people never before met. We are 24 and 25, respectively, very respectful, kind and gentle, and in love with people!

PHILOSOPHY

I live for the next experience, and the next people or persons in it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Though I and we are new to the CS2 project, I have before participated, though only at random. For instance, picking up the traveling hitchhiker and bringing them home for the night, giving them a place to stay and food before they are off again on their adventure. Likewise, I've accepted the same hospitality from others, and will again in the future, no doubt!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While traveling for a summer, visiting thoroughly the west coast of the united states and all the small towns along it, I ran into so many people! People who would pick me up and take me in for a night and sometimes two, then send me on my way in the morning, rejuvenated, and ready to continue my travels. Similarly, so I have done for so many others, at times when I'm not already away. Unfortunately this is the only sort of couchsurfing experience I've had. This will change.

Interests

Traveling, meeting new people, going new places, seeing and experiencing new things, doing new things and with new people and people I've never met. Including others in the random joy of a random day when random people get together in harmony to befriend.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Chris has crabbed-fished the Great North West, Carla has had the great fortune to study art in Florence, Italy!

Teach, Learn, Share

Carla is an amazing painter (says Chris), she has an incredible talent and is working currently to further that. Chris is well-read and has lived on a farm for some time, and so has knowledge of various farming related things, as well as canning, smoking, cooking, et cetera.
