CURRENT MISSION

to relish in the new and then sing about it

ABOUT ME

My favorite thing to do is to communicate. My favorite forms of communication, in particular order, are the following:

1. Songs: To me there is nothing more powerful than a great melody and lyrics. I love singing and writing songs and talking about music in any and every way.

2. Afternoon conversations on quiet, outdoor terraces over a coffee or a glass of wine. This atmosphere really helps me to engage. A brisk temperature, a sweatshirt, and the sound of birds can only help.

3. Walks which provide consistent conversational fodder. When I don´t know what to do in a new location, I always rely on my feet and a friend.

PHILOSOPHY

Never be ashamed to be yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to meet as many couchsurfers as I can and offer my complete attention and enthusiasm to anyone who wants it, for despite my young age, I have been apart of many walks of life in many locations. I´d love to sing you some of my original songs, too.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I just joined and am eager for any and every CouchSurfing experience! (excluding the negative ones, naturally)

Interests

I am un unabashed lover of food. I love combining fresh ingredients in interesting ways. My favorite dish at the moment? Panang curry.

I also wear a lot of stripes, there´s just something about them.
