I live in Brooklyn and work at the Hannah Arendt Center at Bard College, NY where I focus on participatory democracy. I also manage an amazing West African band called Mandingo Ambassadors that play every Wednesday night 10-12 in Brooklyn at a wonderful bar named Barbes. If I cannot host you should come to that concert- it’s the best weekly show in NYC hands down.

I run workshops for teachers, activists and public servants. I believe in the power of empathy and critical thinking. I like to play guitar and dance and I often organize intimate house concerts. I speak Spanish. I enjoy talking music, history, politics, and can be quite silly. I organize jam sessions and little events in our space, which we call The Treehouse.

We sometimes offer a “weekend residency” for creatives looking to host a concert, one-act play, gallery or reading at the apartment. You can find out more about the Treehouse and find me on Instagram @pblindsay

I'm interested in collaborating on interesting creative projects. Don't hesitate to message me with your weird idea.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

I can share my passion for music, history, politics, and sillyness. If I'm hosting and you are around for the weekend you might catch a house concert! I also really enjoy cooking, especially vegetarian options.
