ATTENTION: just send a short message. No need to persuade me to host you. Keep your profiles honest and genuine. Couchsurfing's platform is very limiting and I cannot show which exact days our home is available, so I will deny your request if we are simply unavailable. Don't get frustrated, just send more messages to more hosts.

If my English is confusing, please ask for help.

ME:

I write and film comedy. I like social media and millennials. I think children filming themselves playing Mario Kart is more expressive and genuine than most mainstream media.

I read non-fiction and news publications.

I have a lot of experience cooking and even more experience eating. I've organized and hosted a handful of dinner parties where I cook and clean up after friends that don't pay for the groceries.

I'm a public radio donor and podcast downloader.

I like history, the broad humanities, and political theory, but I'm just a casual observer. Right now I'm particularly interested architecture and urbanism

We are not party people, and we are not particularly enthusiastic people. However we are very patient and sincere.

There is no essence to life, but if you'd like to believe otherwise I will still enjoy it with you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've tried my best to show my guests what is unique about Chicago, my suburban hometown, and the United States. I think the story is best told through the design of the city and the experiences of its residents.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We prefer to host solo travelers and females to provide a safe place ( they are more vulnerable in our experiences)
