To find couches in Europe!

ABOUT ME

This is a profile for Natalie and Angela. We grew up together in a dull suburb of Portland, Oregon, and are best friends. We are sometimes crazy, but in the super fun way, and we are looking for adventures. We're both college students taking some time off to figure out what we want to study and to explore the world. Natalie loves to sing and Angela loves to make things. We both love people, love the environment, exploring and traveling. We both also love good beer.

PHILOSOPHY

Love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We're participating by sleeping on other people's couches, in their spare bedrooms, or on their inflatable mattresses. At the same time we're meeting people all over the world, and telling all of our friends that they should really join the CS project with their couches or by couch surfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed with Ronnie and Timmy in Dublin for a week, and had a fucking great time. We also stayed with Ky, Owain, and James in Brighton for 6 days, which was equally as awesome.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
