CURRENT MISSION
Enjoying Life in the City
ABOUT ME
Living in the amazing city of Chicago right now. I do improv and standup open mics, and work as a server. I like to write and I'm working on a pilot/web series right now.
Just looking to maybe host a few people here and there. During the week is best for me as I work mostly nights and weekends and can show you around at that time. I have two couches. I also have a roof which has an awesome skyline of the city and is super chill for hanging out at night and smoking a doobie/sipping on a beer or two.
PHILOSOPHY
The Golden Rule, Carpe Diem
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've done a lot of surfing in Europe, South America, and the U.S. and I've always had great hosts. Now I host and aim to do the same.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I used couchsurfing when I was Eurotripping in Spring of 2007...it was amazing. I stayed with my boy Niels in Berlin, Patrick in France, and Ronny and Celine in Amsterdam. In Chile I used it as well, and Peru. 100% positive experiences.
