CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Liberal, smart, funny, sarcastic, educated, street-wise, gregarious, ornery.

PHILOSOPHY

This planet won't support 10 billion people. How long can you tread water? Glub-glub! Rome is burning, pull up a chair and have a drink!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couch space galore!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Although I've been amateur couchsurfing for several years, I just became involved with the project. I've hosted two Mexican and two Hungarian students who wanted to see Chicago, and also two Canadians who were in town for a conference. Fun, fun, fun!

兴趣

I LOVE to bike (mostly mountain). Chicago may be the best city in the US to bike around. Playing guitar, cooking, eating out, reading, movies, literary readings, shows, the bars, the White Sox and Bears, Feminist/Gender/Queer/Men's studies, open mics, politics, environmentalism, imigrants rights, agonizing over my next tattoo, and trying to stay sane.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Hiked out into the Atacama desert by myself. I almost stepped on a Puru (miniature deer). In Northern Chile, the ocean runs right into the mountains and desert. The juxtaposition of the two is incredible.

教，学，和分享

I've played guitar for 14 years, and I speak decent Spanish...I could also do a bike tour of the city. You'd just need to rent a bike.
