Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION:
To learn. to listen. to be aware. to care and to act on all these things.
ABOUT ME:
Hi! So, I'm a harpist and amateur guitarist. Currently studying music performance with the aspiration of music therapist in later years. I'm pretty easy-going, always up for a new challenge, love learning and listening to people and their stories, and open to exploring new territories and horizons.
PHILOSOPHY
Allowing yourself the mercy to fail gives you the freedom to try.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm unable to host as per now due to my living situation and roommates. They are absolutely lovely, but not quite as trusting as I am. Hopefully in the future I can convince them otherwise. :)
Interests
Music! I'm a harpist and amateur guitarist and my current mainstays are Sergiu Natru, Debussy, Liszt, Britten, and opera. Languages, busking, community-building, slam poetry, hiking, rollerblading, portrait photography, gift-culture, and Brazilian bossa nova.

Music, Movies, and Books
Cultural anthropologies like "Watching the English", historical nonfiction like"We Marched Into Sunlight" and "The Lemon Tree", and people's personal projects like "The Happiness Project".
Teach, Learn, Share
If you wanna teach it, I wanna learn it. I love learning new things, new cultures, new languages, although I'm definitely not polyglot level! I really love sharing and listening to people's stories. I can teach Italian, harp or guitar-ing, or the best recipe for chocolate chip oatmeal cookies. :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
Firstly, I can share a willingness to clean up after myself! Then, music making, conversation, cooking, acceptance and openness, and willingness to explore/adventure.
