My name is Calvin and I am a singer-songwriter born and raised in New York City. I went to elementary, middle school, high school, and university all in NYC. I'm into dancing (ballet, hip hop, salsa, contemporary, and reggae) as well as playing the piano. I'm currently working on a food initiative that highlights food insecurities people face around the country. I’m extremely open-minded, queer friendly, and have the utmost respect for all humans.

I've traveled to a bunch of countries and islands over the past 10 years.. My favorite place to visit out of all of my travels was Japan. Met some amazing people and the food is to die for. Into a lot (hiking, dancing, cooking etc.) but must say, music is my life!

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

Simply to give back to the community and meet like-minded individuals. I've had nothing but great experiences on Couch Surfing and I felt the need to give back in some sort of way.
