Hi Couchsurfers!
I'm a pianist who plays and teaches a lot of different styles of music although I specialize in jazz. I love performing and teaching and through these passions I've been able to travel and play in some amazing places. Most recently I was teaching at a music school in New Delhi for two semesters. During my time in India I discovered the art of meditation and Buddhist philosophy which has forever changed my outlook on life. I'm easy-going and I love to meet new people of different cultures and backgrounds.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I want to see the world in a more authentic, less touristic way. I'm currently traveling through Europe and would love to see the lesser-known parts of all the cities I will be visiting.

Teach, Learn, Share
