I'm passionate about travel, food, learning about new cultures, enjoying local attractions everywhere I go, and meeting new and interesting people from all over the world.

I live with my partner in a beautiful condo just north of Downtown Chicago with easy access to public transportation. I have a busy job as a Senior Project Manager for Heavy Industrial construction that takes up a lot of my time but when I'm free I'm usually hopping on a plane to destinations unknown, often not knowing where I'm gonna end up until the weekend of!

I love scoping out wonderful restaurants everywhere I go and usually have great suggestions for places to eat in all of my favorite cities - feel free to ask!

I am happy to open my home to travelers from abroad that need a quick place to stay. LGBT travelers are very welcome and I'd be happy to suggest plenty of great must-visit bars, restaurants, and attractions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Offering the hospitality that has been so graciously given during my past travels abroad and hoping to make new friends and learn of countries to visit.
