I'm a 28 year old professional touring musician, in the middle of world tour across Australia, New Zealand, Western Europe, Ireland, England and the U.S. with a band called the Underscore Orkestra; based in Portland, Oregon, US, with members from Brazil, Australia & Ireland.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a way to connect with people and exchange conversation and culture easily - to see the real picture of people's lives and have fun with them rather than passing through hotels and missing out on the place.

Interests

I love wild nature (hiking, camping, wild foraging/wildcrafting), movement/dance/yoga, playing and listening to all kinds of music especially Balkan Brass, Gypsy Jazz, New Orleans Swing, Irish/Celtic (my own heritage) Brazilian Forro and American Folk Blues.
