Denaree and Ben, our first friends from http://www.couchsurfing.com/, Awesome couple! gracious, and chill and just downright friendly. Hoping to catch a few beach days with them in another month or so. Denaree is a school teacher, Ben is a structural enginner. They both live and work in Bangkok now, but are originally from midwest-USA. Denaree's family owns a restaurant in Bangkok. They introduced us to some great new food dishes and the craziest shopping we've ever seen.
