I'm a professional musician.
I like meeting new people, sharing great food whether at a restaurant or home, sharing laughs and thought provoking conversations.

I'd like to learn more about music and the music industry, FIRE, yoga, martial arts, food, nature, astronomy, tech, business, marketing, etc.

I also like imagining what the world would be like if solutions to problems were resolved by exclusively voluntary and non-violent means.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
