As the Chief Experience Officer and Founder of Joyful Journeyer I am immersed in a life of creating special and memorable experiences for our guests and creative community. I love the arts and traveling which provide inspiration everywhere I go. Being the mother of three teenage kiddos keeps me on my toes and provides me learning moments everyday. I'm the luckiest person on the planet. I have a wide-scoped background in the arts, technology and the business world. But I love most is the freedom to create, inspire, be inspired — and live my best life with the three coolest kids ever.

The Abbey Road Retreat is a Chicagoland gem near the birthplace of Ernest Hemingway, Frank Lloyd Wright Home/Studio. This historic first-story flat is furnished in vintage and Beatles themed furnishings. Walking distance to live music (Fitzgerald's, shopping, and restaurants). Easy street parking and kitchen well stocked. First floor porch. Perfect for long/short term stays.

You'll be staying on the Friendly Music Community campus where you'll find daily live music, a coffee lounge, a full bar, a music school, an art gallery, and enrichment classes. We’re so lucky to have an incredible park just up the street! Tennis courts can fill up quickly on nice days, but usually turn over if you wait on the sidelines. Bikes are available to rent. Easy access to the "L" train green line, blue line as well as the Metra. I-290 is just minutes away.
