Hi, I'm Mike! I live in Chicago, where I was born and raised. I think it's a beautiful city, and would be glad to offer advice on things to do and places to see.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to talk to and meet other travelers, explore other cultures, cuisines, art, and sites.

Interests

I like the typical things like reading, movies, spending time with friends, trying new restaurants, playing sports, etc.

I also love art of all kinds, figure drawing in particular. I have an art studio in Chicago where we welcome people of all levels to draw. And I love mixed martial arts!
