CURRENT MISSION

I love meeting new people! Especially creative, imaginative, open minded, easy going, cyclists, hipsters, tattooed or not, fly by the seat of your pants, kinda people.

ABOUT ME

I'm 24 years old, living and learning more about the world every day. I ride my bike pretty much everywhere, for commuting, transportation, and just for fun! Recently on the fence about starting to race in the velodrome and on the streets.... still kinda thinking about it. I looooooove good beer, am learning to love good coffee, and really just don't like whiskey. I finally landed a big girl job and treated myself to an apartment on the border of Wicker Park and Ukrainian Village. My boyfriend lives with me and we love doing long rides from Chicago... we've ridden to Milwaukee, Starved Rock, and the western suburbs. Hoping to add to this list now that we're more comfortable with the routes and have built up some new-to-us vintage touring bikes!

PHILOSOPHY

Live simple. Live happy. Do whatever it is that makes you the very best you you can be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just heard about couch surfer, but I'm already loving it! My long term goal is to travel to as many bike-friendly cities as possible, and couch surfer just might make that affordable! Next up, Portland, Seattle, and DC!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hmmmm well I haven't had any official couchsurfer experiences but I'm always happy to host a friend on my extremely comfortable couch! I commuted to the city for school for a semester so I've stayed my fair share of nights on random couches and its my turn to return the favor!

Interests

Reading nerdy books (Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings) and watching nerdy movies (Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, etc.) I bike absolutely everywhere, don't own a car and don't want to. Sustainable living is extremely important to me.
