About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Making the best of my life and of the lifes of the people I meet.

ABOUT ME

I'm someone who is very openminded; always in to get to know new people. Also, I'm very interested in all kinds of cultures and traditions. I love to hear people's stories and I like to tell them mine, if they are interested of course :p

Be yourself! I'm gay myself, so everyone is very welcome at my place, no matter what your orientation or religion is :)

PHILOSOPHY

I want to travel the world. Get to know traditions and music from all over the world. It would be nice to be able to play some music of different traditions and have my music influenced by that.
Getting to know people and giving them the warmth they deserve. Maybe help them a hand when they are in need of something, if that lies within my capabilities. I hope I meet a lot of nice and interesting people! ^^

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to sleep over during my time abroad and help people doing the same, when then come over to my place. It's cheaper to travel that way and makes people able to see more of the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I both hosted and stayed as a guest in other places and I love it!

Interests

I'm a musician, so obviously I like to spend my time going to concerts and playing music myself. As a vocal teacher, I like to work with people who have the ambition of making a lot of progress and becoming a good singer.
Besides listening to music I love, I like to watch series, movies and I like to read.
I very much like to explore new things and travel the world, with a friend (or two, three), or alone, getting to know knew people along the way.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love books and series like Harry Potter, the Lord of the Rings, Disc World, etc. I really much enjoyed reading the series of Robin Hobb and The 8, by Catherine Neville.
Some of the series I liked: Friends, 3th Rock from the Sun, Two and a half Men, Heroes, Dexter, Walking Death, Fringe. I also like Brittish comedy, such as The Blackadder, Miranda, etc.
As for music: there's a lot I like there! From classical to rock, jazz, soul, motown, barbershop, funk, ... Just name it! Not so luch into metal and electronical music though.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the things I'll keep remembering, is the time I spent in Göteborg, Sweden. I've lived there for half a year, completing the first part of my MA in Music. I've made some good friends there and I really enjoyed the city and it's beautiful and peaceful islands.

Teach, Learn, Share

I very much enjoy to improve people's skills in music. I'm mainly a vocal coach, so you can ask me anything that concerns singing if you would like that. Also I'd be able to show you some stuff on the piano or saxophone. Maybe we can play some music together? Would be nice! ;)
What I want to learn? Many things, so if you have anything you like to do ar anything you're good at: shoot! :D
