À propos de moi

CURRENT MISSION -- updated on 5/23/16

To build a life for my family on our 2 acre homestead where we are able to find balance both within ourselves, and in our larger community and world.

ABOUT ME

**Please write FUNKY MONKEY in your request so I know you've read the profile. Thanks!**

I am a non-profit professional manager working with an education-based organization in the city. I probably spend too much time at work (plus the 2-hours of daily commuting I do) but I love my job and I'm blessed to finally have full-time work that is exciting and challenging.

I live with my wife on a newly purchased 2-acre homestead nestled in the suburbs about 1-hour outside of Chicago. We are one of the only farms in the neighborhood, and one of the only queer families as well. We come from large artistic and vibrant communities in the city, and have both traveled internationally. We miss that type of cultural exchange and hope to provide an inviting respite for like-minded folks as they go about their own travels.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything is always in abundance, even when it feels like it isn't. Gratefulness is the key to unlocking that paradox.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Stayed with a cool cat in Scotland in his hand-build tree house (replete w/ running water, working stove, wifi) next to a farm with it's own earthship.
