Hey there! Please note that I am not hosting any more this season as I will be traveling for a while. I will resume some time in 2020 so stay tuned!

——————————————————————————————————————-

I have worked in the sciences for 15 years and now am taking a year off to travel, focus on personal development, draw and experience other cultures different from my own.

As a guest, I keep to myself and try to respect the host’s time and space. Traveling for me tends to be a solo adventure which means I interact sparingly with people. However, I do appreciate chatting with local residents from time to time in a quiet and relaxed setting.

As a host, I deeply respect my guest’s space and privacy and only interact as much as they desire. I am willing to do things with my guest and would be willing to explore the city. I don’t drink much so probably wouldn’t have much interest in going out to bars or clubs or even late-night music venues. I do, however, like to do some touristy things like boat or architecture tours or going to the lakefront. I love to cycle and have a spare bike and would be willing to ride with my guest. Pets are also welcome.

My schedule is pretty light, but I do keep busy. I have classes Monday through Wednesday in the morning, and I take a couple of hours each day to spend time with my family and girlfriend. Otherwise, I'd be happy to share the city with you. Just let me know ahead of time.

Talk soon and welcome to Chicago!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Well, I have a comfortable home and I can share the city with newcomers. I have a gym membership as well and can bring guests to go work out. I stock my kitchen with goodies and have a few neighbors that are awesome and love meeting new people. I’d also be happy to help anyone practice their English. And I have a spare bicycle.
