ABOUT ME

Hello! :) My name is Angelica and Im 28 years old. I am an IT professional in Chicago and travel is my passion. I leveraged the couch surfing network during my 4 month, 100+ city backpacking adventure through South America in 2010-2011. It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life and I met some of the most impactful people to date.

South America quote: "I left home for reasons that not many would-could understand but I found learning and heartache, acceptance, and wonder in travel."

I would love to meet as many people along the way and extend a warm welcome anytime you are in Chicago when I return. Your home will be mine.

Trips planned for 2013 - 2014: Hawaii, Iceland, Brazil, Barcelona - Spain, Buenos Aires - Argentina and Thailand.

PHILOSOPHY

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. While others stay and leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the same.

When you look at me, I get competely dismantled.
