CURRENT MISSION

Saving and planning for my first long term travel

ABOUT ME

Im 28 and moved to Chicago in 2002 to attend University. I currently work for a worker justice non-profit and am in the early stages of planning a year long, globe spanning odyssey.

PHILOSOPHY

I find my greatest personal growth has come from meaningful conversations with new people.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Now that I have a more consistent schedule, I'm looking to get more involved in the couch surfing community. I can show you around or just as easily let you explore the city on your own.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Watch the sun rise over a frozen Lake Michigan from the hidden beach in the lake shore.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I am well versed in Folk music (as in 1920's and before) and can give recommendations to those interested. I also have several bookcases full of books. After getting to know your interests, I am happy to recommend you a book to take (and keep) on your travels. Seriously, I have too many. You'll be doing me a favor.
