CURRENT MISSION

to connect with/influence/aid artists and musicians as they pursuit their calling

ABOUT ME

I grew up in the country but came alive in the city.
I'm passionate about making Pittsburgh *work for musicians and artists

*a viable place to live, work, visit and play

PHILOSOPHY

Pay. It. Forward. Whatever you've been blessed with, pass it on with intention and love.
Brett and I both believe the best thing you can give to a person is time. We look at staying up until 3am talking with a friend (old or new) as an interpersonal investment. :)

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love meeting people (and hosting especially)! Making people feel at home, listening to records, talking about their lives, feeding them fun food - it's such a pleasure! Occasionally we might need a couch on which to crash, but overall, my excitement in all of this is the the hope to connect with people who are self-aware enough to care for others and allow themselves to be cared for in the process.

COUCH SURFING EXPERIENCE

Have had only excellent experiences so far! M hubby and I love to host!
