ABOUT ME

ATTENTION: I can’t host in SF, but might be able to bring you with me to my cabin in Sonoma County near Monte Rio on the Russian River.

I grew up in San Francisco's Mission District in a house packed with music, books, paintings, and an endless assortment of random treasures. I miraculously still live in SF, but spend most weekends in Sonoma.

I teach preschool music, write songs, read, swim, hike, hunt for mushrooms, and eat all the pastries.

PHILOSOPHY

God damn it, you've got to be kind.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couchsurfing experiences were with my band as we toured through California, Oregon, and Washington. I was thrilled to meet so many diverse and warmhearted people. I've since toured and couchsurfed all over Europe twice, surfed in Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, and hosted in San Francisco.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I've seen attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate.
