Note: I'm moving and traveling for the next few months and unable to accept requests at my place. Happy to provide recommendations for things to do in the city though!

Back to regular programming:

NYC Native, but I'm based out of Chicago now. I love where I'm from, but I'm grateful I've had the opportunity to travel beyond it.

I love big cities and also quiet nature spaces. Currently I am exploring whether I want to make hiking a hobby.

However, trying different saunas and thermal baths is on the list of longtime favorite pursuits. Please send your recommendations! 🙏 😊

I love food. So. Much. Sugar is my vice! Sweets, and esp bakeries, are my weakness. Soup is a close second favorite. 🍲

For hosts: I'm generally a chill person and don't get easily lost in a new place, even without a map. I'm quite tidy and considerate. Please let me know what your preferences are around sleeping/wakeup times so that I can avoid disrupting your sleep schedule.
