CURRENT MISSION

Settle into a new life in Marseille and make music that makes me happy!

ABOUT ME

I'm an American singer, currently working in France.

PHILOSOPHY

Never stop learning.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm currently living in Marseille and though I get to travel a lot in France for shows, I never really have time to get to know the places I visit. I get a passing glimpse, a postcard impression, and then I'm on another early morning train with a hangover.

So one of my 2016 resolutions is to take a few weekends for myself to surf around France! If you have the time, I'd love to be shown around by people who are proud of the cities they live in.
