About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make sure people enjoy their stay in Chicago and get a great idea of what my favorite city is all about.

ABOUT ME

I don't know what to say here! I like to have fun and I especially like having couch surfers over because sometimes it reminds me of how wonderful Chicago is, and I do things that I don't normally do like go to China Town, museums, etc. I think being a host really reminds me of how lucky I am be where I am at in my life and where I live.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is to constantly seek out self peace and happiness as long as you don't destroy that for others. Life is too short and I love the fact that in many ways I still refuse to grow up.

So far all of my experience is through my roommate/boyfriend, who are also a couch surfers. We've had numerous people here, and I've enjoyed it each time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When you live in Chicago, I swear I see something strange, odd, or amazing everyday. From someone getting hit by a car, to a woman talking to her dog while walking it, to firecrackers being blown to high hell during Chinese New Years by the Argyle red line stop
