I am revisiting this after having a crazy last few years! I truly had a great time with it and I enjoy meeting all sorts of people. I imagine it'll be a bit tricky with covid, and a bit limited, but we can find a way!

Old profile below, still in process of updating:

CURRENT MISSION

To follow the path life takes me, wherever it is...

ABOUT ME

I have tons of interests, especially travel, which is what brought me here. You'll probably see my sister in a lot of my photos with me, since we get along famously traveling and do it every chance we get.

While having spent most of my life in Chicago, I am really, really not a fan of the cold, so I make our three or so summer months count and almost always travel to warm places.

Music, Movies, Art, Architecture, Photography, History, you name it, as long as it's interesting, progressive and creative, I'm likely into it!

A difference from many of you here, I also am very much into running (which can be treated as very strange in many places, I know) and have done it in most every city I've traveled to.

PHILOSOPHY

You've only got one chance, so make it count. Take life by the horns and live it! In everything you do, have your fun but harm no one. Ever. And, leave everything and everyone you come across better than they were when you first came across them.

ALSO:

Please note that yes, I've had a bit of a name change, among other things, which is why some of the reviews might appear addressed to someone else. I'm still the same person I always was, and on other platforms my reviews where I stay are 100% positive everywhere! I'm sweet and kind and fun and wish the world was more like that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, I started up CouchSurfing many years ago but was completely sidetracked by life. I just ended up traveling with some friends who weren't really up for it and neglected it. But, I had great experiences with all the people I met and am excited to pick it up again!

I'm always up for making new friends, wherever and whenever they show up in my life (although it gets sometimes difficult to keep up with everyone, the more people you meet).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed at a few places and met up with some people in the past, but it's been a while. Time to catch up! I'm likely going to Buenos Aires, Bangkok, Sydney and Rio De Janeiro in the next three months!
