Resumen
Sobre mí
CURRENT MISSION
Reconcile my perspective with the world at large.
ABOUT ME
Born in Los Angeles, transplanted to the Midwest.
I love the outdoors, but I've been trapped in urbana for the past two years. I take the stairs, and I'd rather walk than drive. I'm a big fan of public space and public transportation.
I'm friendly, and often outgoing. I appreciate silence as well as conversation. I'm pretty optimistic and don't stress easily, but sometimes I do like to plan things.
Other places (of any kind) fascinate me... I'm on a mission to see the entire Midwest before I leave here in a few years.
I'm a student at the University of Chicago. I study geography, whatever the hell that means. In my down time I work on a political campaign to deliver better health care to people who can't afford insurance and I do some work with high schoolers nearby my university. Looking to get into some volunteer teaching and education work.
PHILOSOPHY
Calm down.
Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've hosted travelers from all over on their way through Chicago and I've spent a few nights on other peoples' couches in the US and Europe.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've surfed in Dallas, Milwaukee, Rotterdam, Maastricht, and Ghent, and it's always been a great time. Stepping into someone else's world for a few days is a really good experience.
Chicago- some great people have stayed at my place... I'm a little removed from the center of Chicago's action but I think I offer a unique, college-aged perspective in an underrated neighborhood

Enseña, aprende, comparte
I would love to talk to you in shitty, broken Spanish. I've read a lot of books, I can name drop a lot of philosophers, and I get off to looking at maps. Let's discuss something!
