I am a musician/performer/human. I love all sorts of art. I have been studying Classical singing in the Western tradition for 11 years. I love music, from Animal Collective and Frank Zappa to Britten and Bartok.. and every genre in between.

I have no sense of smell. A condition called Anosmia.

I've spent my 20s living in Florida, Philadelphia, and New York. In 2017 I began working internationally on cruise ships, and intend to continue until February of 2019. Between contracts I like to travel.:)

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I started on couchsurfing in 2011 when I backpacked through Europe. Now I'm hoping to continue to meet people, and hopefully facilitate someone else's travels. It's more economical for everyone and it allows people to get to know the culture of a country more easily.

Insegna, impara, condividi

Recently I've been very interested in history. I love Roman history and European history as well as historical linguistics.

I can teach singing, or how to make cinnamon rolls from scratch.

Share all the recipes!
