30 year old musician in Brooklyn! I'm saved from the stamp of being a total BK stereotype by the fact that I don't like Pale Ale, and don't have a bike. But, I do like homemade Kombucha, records, meditation, podcasts and, like, sea salt etc. So you know.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will be in Quito, Ecuador 6/14/15-6/27/15, and I'd love to connect with other travelers in or recently-in Quito for advice/info on cheap accommodations, food, and music/cultural happenings. I lived in Quito ten years ago, and guess that my knowledge of such things is a bit out of date. For those two weeks, I will simply want to listen to, and maybe even play, as much music as I can.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I met Desmond Tutu as a child. I didn't know anything about him, though, so I acted natural.

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't know what I'm intended to put here.

What I Can Share with Hosts
