I am a currently working as a Systems Analyst for a company in the loop. I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago and moved into the city the first chance I got. I currently live in the neighborhood of Lakeview East, but I have lived in Wicker Park and Hyde Park as well.

I have recently started urban gardening with a decent amount of success (fruit is my nemisis). Bicycling is my favorite way to get around the city, and I enjoy cooking, and try to make each new thing I learn how to cook from scratch at least once.

I am also an amateur photographer. I enjoy urban, travel, and landscape photography. I am working on getting comfortable enough with street photography. IG: @shawnpmccrimmon

Please request a maximum of three nights. My space is small and more than that can be a little tiring for me.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I love getting to know people from other places and cultures. I am looking to expand my knowledge of the world and make new friends.
