CURRENT MISSION

To explore cultures, communities and natural areas.

ABOUT ME

I'm a singer-songwriter and musician. When I'm not working on my own music, I am playing music for kids aged 2-11. I also teach yoga to kids aged 2-5. I enjoy good books, wine, cooking and being active. In the summer, I make it a habit to swim in the lake every morning. In the winter, I wrap myself into ski goggles, polar fleece and down, and I take walks no matter how cold it gets.

PHILOSOPHY

The only thing that is constant is change. I try to enjoy moments, knowing they won't last forever. They never do.

You have to fail to succeed. And, if you keep at something, you will eventually succeed.

Always do your best.Then you'll never regret anything you did.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am just getting started with couchsurfing. I've been a member of the site for a few years, but I haven't used it... yet. I hope to participate by connecting with travelers who visit Chicago. I'm happy to show you around town. Unfortunately, I can't host at this time, though, because I'm living with my parents.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While I've slept on many a couch in many a country, I have limited couch-surfing experience through this website. I'm looking forward to connecting with new folks that I might not otherwise get to meet.

Music and cooking! I am happy to play tunes on the guitar anytime. I'm also a great cook. I'm also happy to show you around town if you are in Chicago.
