I am a musician from San Francisco, California, USA making a life here in the great and ancient city of Thessalonica. It would be a joy to connect with people from near and far who find themselves in this amazing place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Developing and living within a community is, I believe, one of the most important human needs. I am grateful for this means of connecting with people from many places, and I look forward to discovering those of you I am meant to know.
