My wife and I are early empty-nesters who enjoy traveling and meeting people. My wife is the extrovert but I can hold my own. If your thinking about Chicago, reach out. Our schedule is very flexible, so even if our calendar says we're unavailable, we might still be able to work something out. Send us a message and we can chat. Our two kids are in their early 20's and sometimes still travel with us. If they don't go with, we often take a friend or two with us. We have traveled internationally consistently for the last 5+ years and will continue to do so because of our flexible work schedules. We are both self-employed so that explains the flexibility, we can work from most anywhere there's internet. With the small yard that we have we enjoy growing flowers and vegetables in our garden. Come visit and you can pick and eat whatever's ripe. Our home is in the South Loop/Chinatown neighborhood of Chicago. Restaurants are literally a block away. We do have two cats that we can find temporary housing for if needed. If you'd like to feed and water them, bonus! Btw, my wife Helen is OCD with cleaning, which I see as a plus. You won't ever know they were here if we didn't tell you they were. They are not allowed on the furniture or two of the three bedrooms.
