About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am on a mission to becoming an International Musical Ambassador for peace.

ABOUT ME

I am setting out on my mission to use my music therapy skills of 16 years and my performance experience on accordion and flute to become an International Music Ambassador for peace. I would like to find a troupe of performers to travel the world with me, one city or town at a time, learning traditional musics, and them performing them in an interactive way with our audiences for the purpose of building bridges between audience and performer, musician and "remembering" musicians, people of all nations uniting as a people of our one planet!

PHILOSOPHY

Follow what puts a fire in your step. Trust that this is the Divine talking to you. He/she will provide for you as you walk in faith and dedication to your particular service.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have had the amazing fortune of surfing on many people's couches. Thank you to all of the people that have hosted me. I hope to return the favor to MANY, MANY people someday!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had an amazing experience so far. I joined couchsurfing when I started to travel as a musician in 2009. People have been amazingly generous with me. I am so humbled and grateful. Someday, I will be in a position to return the generosity I have experienced!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Following a dream is amazing....That is what I am doing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I cook macrobiotically for health and yumminess. I would love to use new ingredients found in many countries I have not visited yet! I am learning Spanish and would love to learn Italian and French too! I can play you a song or teach someone how to play a song on the accordion!
