About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To eat a slice of pizza in every country.

ABOUT ME

My name is Steve and I currently live just outside Chicago. I am a musician and perform for a living. Basically I found what makes me happy and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

PHILOSOPHY

Be Happy. I feel we should all strive to find what makes us truely happy and build our lives around it. It may sound cliche, but life is too short to waste it being unhappy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have yet to participate and I can't offer a couch at this time but I look forward to showing people around Chicago if I am free.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have slept on a few couches and extra beds in my travels around the U.S.

Interests

Music, both listening and performing. I am currently learning German. Travel is my second passion and I hope to begin seeing the world very soon. I am a huge sports fan with baseball being my favorite. I love to read. I love a good hike, unfortunately Chicago doesn't have too many good options. I also enjoy a good bike ride.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is my passion and a few of my favorite artists are: Phish, Paul Simon, Radiohead, The Beatles, Wilco, Nick Drake, and many others. Of course I enjoy movies, basically all genres. And I love reading, I prefer fiction. I also find history of all sorts fascinating.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hard question to answer, I am not sure I have seen or done anything in my life that I could honestly describe as amazing. At least I haven't yet, which is exciting because that means the best is yet to come.

Teach, Learn, Share

If I know something you don't and you want to learn about it, just ask and I'll do the same.
