CURRENT MISSION

Living life one day at the time, without regrets

ABOUT ME

Currently in Chicago, live and work downtown

I am very open-minded, friendly, engaging, outgoing, I think funny(some people disagree):)

I know Chicago very well, mostly the cool Chicago spots, not the touristy stuff. I like to explore cool spots and give recommendations on what to do and see in Chicago.

I am fortunate to have an amazing family & interesting friends that I value very much.

My interests/passions are quite diverse. I appreciate travel, culture, music, arts, etc and possess an intellectual curiosity to explore the world and expand my horizons.

I am fascinated with human behavior and like to understand different cultures & people. Wine connoisseur & foodie, but I am not a snub!
I designed, opened and operated the first wine bar in Austin, TX.

PHILOSOPHY

Favorite quote:
The only way to have a friend is to be one!

As an independent thinker I try not to subscribe to the consumerism driven societal pressures.

I value originality in those who are “themselves in a world that is constantly trying to make them something else”.
