Sobre Mim
I love to meet new people from all walks of life. I love learning new things and exploring every bit that I can of this beautiful Earth we live on. I've traveled most of the U.S. aside from the West Coast (which I aim to fix this Summer!) I recently finished my Bachelor's Degree in Information Technology and moved to the amazing city of Chicago, which I have fallen in love with. I try to get out and enjoy the city as much as possible, but I also love getting away!
Por que estou no Couchsurfing?
Meeting new people is one of my favorite things to do. I live in a beautiful city and I'd be delighted to share it with the rest of the world!

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz
I've been to Niagra Falls on the Canadian side of the border. (The good side :P)
Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe
I can teach you English, maybe piglatin as well :P I am very tech savvy and have a career in the IT industry. Just don't call me only to fix your computer :P
I would love to learn more about different cultures and all of the "non-touristy" things that real locals do in different areas, which Couchsurfing should be a great help with.
I'm always down to share a six pack of my favorite local brews.
O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões
Good conversation, whether it's serious or lighthearted. I don't ask for much, and I can give you all sorts of inside tips, tricks, and ideas during your visit to the city of Chicago. I'll also share my experiences about the other great places I've had the chance to visit.
