I’m a musician and bus lifer traveling around America with my wonderful partner (https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/zaalo ) and our 2 dogs and 2 cats. We are loosely based around Austin, TX during the colder months and New England the rest of the time (at least for 2023-2024). You can check out our bus (that we will likely be showing up in if requesting a stay in the US) on IG at tumbleweed.twirl. You can find our music at Bourgeois Mystics on all streaming and (most) social media platforms. I've played and recorded with too many other bands to list here, and if you have a band, I'll probably try and join it (I'm only halfway kidding, I really love playing music with people).

我为什么使用Couchsurfing
So many reasons - to meet new people, to participate in a sharing community vs. sterile capitalism, to go to places we wouldn't otherwise go, and so on and so forth.
音乐、电影与书籍
Favorite music is endless but includes metric, wild child, tilly and the Wall, paperbird, the submarines, bright eyes, hurray for the riff raff, cold war kids, the blow, tune-yards, Lucius, Man Man, and always a slew of smaller Austin TX bands I'd love to share with you. Want a Spotify playlist? HMU, I gotchu (assuming you like indie pop/rock/folk). The last book I read and couldn't put down was was Just Mercy. I admittedly never read enough (I'm more in to podcasts/things I can multitask to), but as a kid I loved watership down. Right after college Mistborn was a favorite series. Most of my reading now is all animal training/behavioral science related. I can never remember movies, but I love tons of series. The latest ones I've enjoyed have been Succession, The White Lotus, Yellowjackets, Raised by Wolves, The Last of Us, and Severance.
我做过的一件令人惊叹的事
Oh dear, I don't think I've done anything all that grand yet, but I'm working on it! I've certainly climbed my fair share of water towers and taken countless moonlit gallops, but nothing quite worth calling amazing.
教学、学习、分享
Give me thirty minutes and I can show you either the basics of playing piano, how to read your dog's body language, or teach your horse to boop a target.
我能与房东分享的
Conversation, songs, vegan cooking :)
我的兴趣
I adore animals of all kinds. I always have a few dogs and cats and whenever I'm stationary like to foster a couple more when I can. I have a degree in Equine Science and previously worked full time as a non-traditional equestrian that trained horses through positive reinforcement. Beginning of 2022 I decided I moved to full time travel and left my job on the farm, but I am still enthralled by behavioral science and animal training in general. My other main interest is music. I adore playing music and singing with other people and have played in countless bands throughout the years. I of course also love travel (hence this site) and meeting new folks.
