I spent the past 8 years living in Chicago and now this is coming to a close. I am traveling a little, seeing some places I might consider moving to see how they vibe. My handful of best friends are from all different ages and backgrounds. I have a penchant for spending time in nature, meditating, making art (charcoal, sculpture), and the 3 main things I seek daily: good food, good music and a good laugh.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm considering moving to Colorado, New Mexico, or perhaps some small town not far from a beach on the west coast. I just want to visit these places and see what they're like so I can decided where I want to relocate long term.

Interests

Warm nights with good friends, good food, good wine, going to the beach, walks in warm rain, and working with my hands.

• wildlife
• writing
• meditation
• beaches
• community living
• being in nature

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hot air ballooning in New Mexico and I made a drawing from a black & white photo I found online of a young american hippie living in an intentional community of tree houses they built on a beach in Hawaii. You can find these photos online is you search for Camp Taylor in Hawaii.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I make the BEST salsa I've ever tasted, a simple yet divine recipe I learned from a woman I rented a room from in Puerto Vallarta when I lived there. It's simply amazing, and can be made at any level of spiciness.
