    Long time WarmShowers host ...

    I've been a host on WarmShowers for about 6 years and it has been a wonderful experience. Some of my more memorable guests include:

    -- A guest who told me about the National 24 Hour Challenge, and thus started my endurance cycling career (his son recently came out and rode the N24HC with us)
    -- A family who had been on the road already 12 months - the boys were 4, 6 and 8 when they left Calgary and headed for Mexico. Each morning mom taped their homework to the handlebars on the tandems and tagalong.
    -- A couple on their honeymoon, visiting all 50 states and raising money for two fantastic causes
    -- A photographer/touring cyclist who I am still in contact

    And many more.

    I recommend everyone consider becoming a host, whether you live alone, as a couple or a member of a large family. And regardless of whether you have just a small place to pitch a tent or a private bedroom w/bath.

    I had my card on the mantle too, but apparently the naughty kitty thought it belonged behind the piano,
    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

    Hey- I hosted them, too! Well, I suppose it could have been another couple doing the same thing, but A&C were the sweetest couple ever! They even rode to school with me and did a big presentation for the school before they left town.
