CURRENT MISSION

Elwood: It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses. Jake: Hit it.

ABOUT ME

both born and raised in the Chicago area. We eat too much taco bell. We skateboard poorly. We started to go to university... for art?...yeah it stopped making sense to us too. Were a couple of wild kids who just want to meet other interesting people and have a good time. the best times we have often involve not even necessarily doing a whole lot, just goofin around. We're big advocates of making your own fun not buying it.

PHILOSOPHY

just be nice goddammit!!! being yourself is the most unique thing you can do. this ones cliche yet always apt, RULES ARE MADE TO BE BROKEN!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

offer up our home to fellow surfers when were not traveling ourselves.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have just begun to suckle from the supple teat that is the CS project. We both plan to pay it forward when we settle down again.

Interests

We both enjoy skating, snowboarding (we want to learn!), biking, Sega, screen printing, recipes, daytime television, Albert Fish, Bill Murray, muzak, motorcycles, death defying feats, art (ALL KINDS), titillating conversations, beer, stupid competitions
(such as who can make off with the best taco bell window decal), tattoos, fastcars, danger, fire, and knives.

Music, Movies, and Books

where to start? Well, the last movies we watched were Notorious, How High, King Pin, Repo Man, and Suspiria. Were listening to NOFX now, and just listened to DOOM and a little KRS-ONE. we dig on some funky stuff too like Curtis Mayfield, Victor Wooten, and James Brown. Were admittedly not the best read people on CS, but we are reading I Drink For a Reason and Death Rides a Pale Horse. Any Charles Bukowski is always a good read.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

today we made decadent chocolate chip banana pancakes with honey, not syrup. they were AMAZING!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

we love to learn, sharing is totally caring, and we can teach ya how to sing off key, train a puppy, grill a cheese burger, ride a skateboard, or roll a spliff.
