About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Italian expedition.

ABOUT ME

I've landed a dream job. I feel incredibly fortunate that I can travel the world singing. I'm experiencing areas of the world and cultures which have enriched my life. I've traveled to 32 countries, sung on international television, consumed delicious food, and met wonderful people. Combine that with living in a beautiful city and life is good.

I like to plan adventures and eat local cuisine during my travels.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couched surfed before, as recommended by my Russian roommate. He has had only good experiences with this group. My last experience was in Spain, where I was blown away by the hospitality of my hosts. I am definitely interested in paying it forward. I hope I will meet more great people. You're probably one of them.

Interests

Food - Sushi, jamon iberico de bellota, pancakes, well done french fries, avocado milkshakes, ice cream. I have a debilitating weakness for Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Oh, and I am a cheeseburger enthusiast. I also just tried Ethiopian and other African cuisines and am now a believer.
