I have lived outside Chicago most of my life, excluding my college years which took me to central IL and the east coast of FL. I have two teen agers. I like to balance activities with chill time. I’m all about the Hygge.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to travel. I realized I am very good at couch surfing with out of state family...so why not expand. And someone I trust completely suggested it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all music. Especially live. More than books or film. But when I read, I prefer non fiction. I love Christopher Nolan and John Hughes films. How’s that for extremes? My favorite ever is Shawshank Redemption.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One?! There’s amazing pieces in each day. Be open.

Teach, Learn, Share

Each person brings their own life experience to each new experience...I try to meet them where they are.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good chatter. Laughter. Story sharing. I’ll go for a jog or take a Yoga class with you. Or I am fine on my own. Oh and I might even leave your space cleaner than I found it! 😂
