Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Knowledge, humility, fun, to check in with the rest of humanity
ABOUT ME
I grew up in Chicago and now live just outside of the city in an area known for the famous American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. I have traveled all over Europe, several times, a few Latin American countries, SE Asia and Turkey. I am currently learning Arabic, I took lessons many years ago, so starting over. I hope to someday work in the Middle East as a nurse, but it may be many years before that happens.
PHILOSOPHY
I live to do good things and do good things I love. Travel, meeting people from all over the world, exchanging ideas, knowledge of places near and far, doing good for humankind (e.g. nursing). We grow as people when we learn more about what is outside of ourselves.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
