I am a world citizen who loves traveling to every corner of the planet. (they aren't technically corners, but anyways!) Love meeting people with different backgrounds, life stories, and aspirations. The diversity of cultures and lifestyles among us people is amazing!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Wherever I go, I prefer to meet the locals and see their everyday lives rather than just "tourist attractions" or museums or the like. Isn't it great to find a host or guest on here to make friends, get local advice, and share amazing stories? Thank you Couchsurfing.com!!

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I listen to movie scores a lot. They are usually a hybrid of orchestral and modern synthetic sounds, and are not bound by any particular genre. So yes I love orchestral. Also love listening to rock and jazz and blues. Also pop and country. Also musicals.
