CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Note to Potential Surfers: I've gotten a flood of emails this summer, many from seemingly well meaning couchsurfers. If you are intent on surfing in our house, please show a little respect and interest by providing me some information about your intent in Chicago. I cannot guarantee that I will be able to get back to you if you make show no effort from the start.

I'm on year #3 of Chicago-living, having moved north after finishing college. I work a decent bit helping to create productive, healthy landscapes for people while restoring local ecologies.

PHILOSOPHY

keep a few moving targets on the horizon.
&
a personal philosohpy in anothers words:
"We always have polite discussions; we have to sometimes get upset, because otherwise we just don't talk about the things that matter." -Kenneth Frampton

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to host as many folks as my house and life can handle.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i sleep well on couches, if sometimes a bit wrinkled. I've hosted more than I've surfed, but I look to change that as soon as work is more maneuverable.
