About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Expand my circle of friends with others who love to travel. "The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page." -Augustine

ABOUT ME

I recently moved to Chicago from San Francisco. I'm still getting to know the city, but love it so far. I am a fan of all things Wisconsin; cheese, Leinenkugels, Madison, and of course the Packers.

"I am not a great cook, I am not a great artist, but I love art, and I love food, so I am the perfect traveller." -Michael Palin

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm still getting to know the city myself, but I would love to share what I've learned about the city so far. I'm up for meeting up for a drink or a coffee and showing other couchsurfers around a bit.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted the best couchsurfer imaginable. Also met up with a CSer in Dublin who showed me the lay of the land. Looking forward to more CS experiences.

Interests

Skiing, exploring the city, watching movies, going to pubs/clubs with my friends, playing tennis, and watching sports, especially soccer, football, hockey, and baseball.
