About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To walk the fine line between sweet and spicy

ABOUT ME

from Chicago with a great passion for travel among many other things. I'm always trying to find a new place to go, whilst still trying to find enough film work to stay afloat. I love Chicago, but may have to move to a city with a better industry soon. if you're around definitely get in contact with me, I'm laid back and really enjoy meeting new and different people.

PHILOSOPHY

To enjoy and share good times with good friends and people from all over that I meet. I strive to never expect anything and live humbly.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

my first experiences were traveling for 5 weeks around Europe (mostly in the east) for a documentary shoot and couch surfing completely changed my perspective on traveling. This site is a great idea and I aspire to offer the same amazing hospitality that I was given.
