About Me

Professional young kiwi musician from Auckland (NZ) with a birth certificate from Hong Kong (but that's about it!). Currently based in London but often finding myself constantly southbound through Asia and back "downunder" to Australia and NZ.

Have a huge passion for meeting & working with people and crossing the big divide of culture through travel - one of the fortunate perks of being a muso. New to Couchsurfing but after so many mates raving about it + my love for meeting new folks from all walks of life I've decided to give it a good shot!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One thing I've learnt throughout my travels is that the best way to meet people is by accident. Lifelong friendships have been formed through random acts of kindness and circumstances and Couchsurfing seems the best place for a travel-crazy people-lover like myself to bump into, connect, and hopefully foster great friendships all over the world from.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you have a piano at home I'd be stoked to give a small impromptu recital after dinner! Otherwise I'm always keen for a great talk about the strange things and places conducting has brought me to so far.
