Originally from Windsor, I'm pretty laid back and love music. I also enjoy camping, hiking, the outdoors, music (especially country and folk), yoga and visiting new places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet interesting people from a range of backgrounds and have the chance to experience places like a local and learn about the culture.

Interests

My biggest loves are hiking, yoga and music. I love being outside and seeing breathtaking scenery or going to a great gig.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love country and folk music. Bands like the Old Crow Medicine Show, First Aid Kit, The Civil Wars and more mainstream country artists like Tim McGraw, Carrie Underwood, Reba McEntire. Also love folk music, Seth Lakeman, Eliza Carthy, The Dubliners and Chieftains. I also love jazz (Oscar Peterson, Ella Fitzgerald, Stephane Grapelli etc.) and world music.

I like lots of books: new thought type books (law of attraction, Eckhart Tolle, Esther Hicks, Louise Hay etc.) and fiction. Just finished the Underground Railroad, which was amazing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So much (I've been really lucky). Two which come to mind are t+ubing in a cave full of glow worms and living in a railway station in Slovakia, singing for Slovakian radio to raise money for charity. Being in Estonia for summer solstice was a great experience too!

Teach, Learn, Share

Can teach violin or piano or show you some basic yoga moves.

Great conversation, I'm an ok musician so can play chilled music. I'm an okay cook too :)
