CURRENT MISSION

To talk to everyone, eat everything, learn as much as I can, and see all the sights!

ABOUT ME

I'm trying to explore different ways of living my life, see the world, and figure out where I want to be and what I'm going to do there. I love good food, beer, and wine, and am always happy to share a meal with anyone. Most of my free time is spent biking, attempting to play my new guitar and ukulele, cooking, baking, and reading. Interesting people and interesting conversations keep me going. I'm always looking for new people to meet and new places to see!

PHILOSOPHY

The most important things in life are the people I spend it with. Everything else is just icing on the cake.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed a couple times, and have had fantastic experiences. I've also met surfers staying with friends of mine, and they've always been great. Now I've got a place where I can host, and I'm excited to meet travelers coming through Chicago!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I saw a flock of sheep standing on top of a bus on a mountain road in Guatemala. I'm still not sure how they got up there or kept from falling off.
