MISSION: live, love, learn ABOUT ME FROM 2006 when I joined Couchsurfing: jumping though fields of daisies... in the sunshine- i am Free... THEN IN 2017: I've been in couchsurfing.org since 2006 which sounds crazy even to me. My experiences have all been really positive and I have appreciated the couchsurfing community and all that it has given to me over the years. I am a forever learner who loves talking with people from different backgrounds. People and stories fuel me. I have a borderline obsession with music. I can't help but dance pretty much everywhere. I also crave some type of Asian food everyday. I have a job that sends me traveling all over, so I can't frequently host, but feel free to message me and I always happy to give suggestions on places to go and things to do in the lovely city of Chicago. NOW 2025: Happy to be able to travel again now with a husband and two curious kids along for the ride. My hubby is a chef and my kids are 5 and 6 year old little bundles of energy, joy and love. Can’t wait to expose them to different cultures and help them gain a global perspective that only travel can provide, all while playing on beaches, trying new foods, going on adventures and meeting families around the world.
