I am a kind and adventurous woman, and my main passion and vocation is singing. I love to sing in many styles including classical, jazz, soul, world music, and folk. My other favorite thing to do is be in nature - hiking, backpacking, swimming in fresh water, basking in the sun on a warm day, dancing in the rain.

I am a mellow, friendly, clean, and respectful guest... and may sing you a song if you wish!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a dream of traveling to many parts of the world, and would like to get to know the locals of any area that I am in.
If someday I have a home where I can host people, I would love to do that too!

Teach, Learn, Share
