I'm a young health educator working in Chicago with youth. I'm a queer, Afro-Latino raised in the U.S. midwest. I studied history, race, and health in college and currently work with public schools around the city. I spend a lot of my time sketching and making clothes. I'm really into music and listening to people's stories.

People would describe me as friendly and goofy probably. I'm social and like to keep myself occupied by learning and exploring as much as I can. I'm pretty good at keeping to myself and can always appreciate good company.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I plan on traveling a lot in 2016 and would like to get some perspective, advice, and insight on the cities I will be in. I also identify as gay/queer and would like to meet other queer folks while I travel.

I also want to give others the opportunity to see Chicago if they are interested!

Interests

• concerts
• nature
• exploring new places

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook you dinner, give you a spot to shower if I'm hosting, and a good idea of what to do around Chicago for a variety of interests.

Otherwise I can give you a sense of motivation to go out and do something different.
