CURRENT MISSION

To share meals and good stories with new and old friends.

ABOUT ME

While a current Chicagoan, I grew up in South Dakota and moved around a lot in my 20s. I spent about three and half years in Africa as a Peace Corps volunteer where I hosted and surfed other volunteers as well as bikers. A friend introduced me to CS several years ago and I've enjoyed all the people and stories that have come from finding commonalities with strangers. I am planning to use CS while traveling through New Zealand in May with my best friend Katie. We look forward to new friends and adventures.

PHILOSOPHY

Laugh a lot.
