I'm a native Michigander, but have been living in Chicago for the past six years. I'm a visual artist and focus on site specific cellulose fiber. (My website is ninalawrin.com if you're curious:) I've been luck enough to travel a bit and am a bit hooked. I love meeting new people and learning from each other.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'd love to meet individuals and share some adventures together:) It's always great to get a local's opinion and I think pretty cool to have people open their doors to strangers, a unique experience.

I'm hitting the road this fall and will be heading toward the west coast. Won't be able to host until next year <3

I love to learn and share recipes. I recently had to switch my diet due to a gluten and dairy allergy, but have been having fun trying out new dishes and exploring more Indian food:)
