Hosting in Chicago - Pilsen Neighborhood

I am a 30 year old extravert. I’ve traveled many Latin countries, growing up with many Mexican, Costa rican, and Colombia friends . My family is Polish, and I have recently rediscovered my family culture on a trip with Dad. I was born in Wisconsin and worked for five years in the bay area and San Diego :) California.

My job is in Chicago Downtown in construction health and safety!

I love Latin music, drinking tea, dancing salsa, and going for coffee! Me encanta aprendiendo nuevas cosas. Ahorita estoy en Medellín cuando escribiendo esto es texto. Me encantan las frutas , la gente, y el tranquilidad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet friends while I travel, and I want to show travelers around my city.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many .... But I'll list a few, maybe you could give me more ideas!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach me your language your style to life and foods.

Me encanta Latino Culture after a full-immersion experience in Costa Rica, learning with advanced courses in Spanish and living with a spanish only speaking family for 4 months after never taking Spanish in my life.
