CURRENT MISSION

To learn about different cultures from around the world and share my travel experiences and tips if anyone ever visits my home in Chicago.

ABOUT ME

Caught the travel bug several years ago and have been on the go ever since. Hope to visit a new country or two every year.

When I am not traveling I enjoy bicycling, running marathons, photography, local bars, improv shows (come on we are in Chicago), dancin' til my leg breaks, a good book or two, ethnic cuisine .

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I need to catch up. Unfortunately at present I am unable to host due to my roommate's preference. However I am more than willing to show my guests around the city. Having lived in Chicago for 20 years I am fairly confident that I can give you good recommendations tailor my guests needs ;)
