CURRENT MISSION

to see the world!

ABOUT ME

We are fun ladies! We are also a couple - just want to make that clear :)

Nicki: Current 1st year Law student and seasoned traveler looking forward to meeting new and interesting people while seeing the wonders of Europe in my last true summer before corporate America. Laid back, easy going, go-with-the-flow kinda gal.

Kara: Currently working as a barista in a specialty coffee shop in downtown Chicago. Wants to do something in life completely unrelated to her Theater degree. Goofy, light-hearted, laugh-at-everything kinda gal.

We are both hoping to see what the tourists don't...

PHILOSOPHY

No day but today! We know it's cliche but surprisingly true.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Over the last year we have taken A LOT of roadtrips to different places in the U.S. and Canada. We both think that (and I'm sure this will change after our summer) Niagra Falls was pretty darn amazing. And something we did that was pretty cool was sing karaoke at a little dive bar in Nashville on the same stage where Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson had sang.

Teach, Learn, Share

We have both lived in Chicago for 5+ years and know a lot of hidden treasures of the city - if anyone wants to teach me to play the ukulele, please do!!
