CURRENT MISSION

To try to stay in many different places and experience the local culture and people.

ABOUT ME

I am a teacher of children k-8 on the south side of Chicago. I live on the north side of Chicago near the historic Wrigley field. I have always had an adventurous spirit and would like to take advantage of the time I have available when I am not at work to travel. I love doing short weekend trips in the midwest as well.

I also now have taken up selling Mary Kay on the side. If you would like to see that website it is www.marykay.com/ksponsler. If you stay with me I will be more than happy to allow you to try Mary Kay products.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life and have a fun while doing it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am not sure what this is yet but I'm sure I can find out more as I become more involved in the organization.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have taken in a few couch surfers and it has been a wonderful experience. I hope to engage hospitality while I'm traveling abroad as it will help me to engage in more cultural activities while I'm at my various locations.

Interests

biking, cooking, partaking in cultural activities, volleyball, card playing, cribbage, hashing (running club) eating at the many wonderful resturants in Chicago., going to see Pat McCurdy. If you stay with me you will probably get to see him play.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think I've seen a lot of amazing things but I'd have to say seeing the grand canyon for the first time in person.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to show people the local sights and sounds of my city. I work during the week days but love to show people the wonderful aspects of the city of Chicago. I try to engage in as much cultural learning activities as possible. I love food and love to show people the local cuisine.
