Hello there! How's it going out there?!? My name is Charlie. I'm a traveling musician from New Orleans, Louisiana. I've been roaming around the U.S. for nearly a decade playing blues, ragtime and older folk music. Currently I'm traveling across the beautiful continent of Europe. I'm surprised I haven't started a CS account sooner. It definitely seems to be an awesome community. I hope to meet you and share stories, laughs, and good times.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
