CURRENT MISSION

For about five years I toured the world and lived between Hawaii, the midwest, Colorado, California, and Europe. I have spent a lot of time on Hawaii over the last few years and consider the islands a second home. I had the time of my life touring Europe in August-November 2017. I busked and played concerts in Austria, Czech, Germany, Iceland, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Slovenia, and Spain. I had a great trip to Australia and Bali in Spring 2019. I'm currently back in my hometown, Madison, WI.

ABOUT ME

I am a singer-songwriter and I've been traveling for the last ten years. I write, perform, and record music. Previously I was a Professional Snowboard Instructor in Lake Tahoe, California. Currently, I am finishing my Bachelors in Communications at University of Wisconsin-Madison.

PHILOSOPHY

Good things happen when you work on yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I couch surfed in Denver a few years ago and ended up going to a meet up, it was a good time. I've gone to a few meetups here in Madison as well, and I am active in the CS scene.

I recently couch surfed in Reykjavik, Iceland and did a house show with fellow Couchsurfers. There were kind people there from five different countries!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I watched 13 sunrises in a row on the island of Oahu (Hawaii), and it was one of the most relaxing trips of my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to show people around my hometown. We have a huge variety of ethnic foods in Madison. Also, there is so much to see and do! Getting out in nature is one thing I love. I bought a standup paddle board, so I'm looking forward to hitting the water this summer. Especially during sunset or even sunrise! I also got a State Park Pass and am looking to hike, paddle board in new State Parks this summer.
