Currently I work a day job, play in a band, and do some freelance writing on the side.

I'm gearing up for a trip through Europe, but down to hang out with new people coming through/living in Chicago while I'm still in town.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To travel and see the world through the eyes and lives of interesting people.

I used to host punk rock shows at my old house, and let bands sleep on the couches and floors afterwards. I've slept on friend's couches, and let others sleep on mine, but I have never arranged anything through this website (and hope to change that soon).

Interests

sights, sounds, but above all, I like good times with good people.
