Hi everyone! I'm Floris, a musician currently residing in Manhattan. I love meeting new people, sharing life stories and learning about people. I make a living teaching and playing piano, which some would call 'living the dream'. I cherish the freedom to choose how I live my life, to be able to couch surf and meet so many great new people through this platform.

If you're interested, you can find me on Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2RnXvqV

Aside from the obvious listening, writing and playing of music, I like to go to the movies, try out new food, drink great beer, see comedy shows, play video games and board games and best of all, hanging out with my friends and people I meet through CS.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I enjoy hosting people from all over the world that come to visit in New York, as well as surfing with others. As an artist, I draw inspiration for my music from the people around me, their lives and the journeys of others. Connecting with people from all over the globe, learning about their lives and cultures, enriches my life. This is why I like to spend time with surfers and hosts during visits.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

It's hard for me to pinpoint to events. But overall I am proud to be following my dreams and that I have actually become a full-time musician, even if it often isn't nearly as glamorous as it sounds. I get to play music for people in all kinds of different places and settings, it's a lot of fun!

ABOUT MY STAY
I always try to leave places cleaner than how I found them. I do not smoke, but I am 420 friendly. I am a night-owl and like to go out to see live music / jam sessions.
Full disclosure: I have been told that I sometimes talk in my sleep!! If you are a very light sleeper in the same room, this might be an issue for you.
