CURRENT MISSION

Persiguiendo la sabrosura musical!

ABOUT ME

I am a full-time musician, at times I go on do-it-yourself, self managed solo tours.

I live in Philadelphia, USA, but from 2009 to 2013 I lived in South America in Argentina, Brazil, and Colombia. Just had a big impact on my music, and I mostly play a fusion of Latin rhythms from the Caribbean and Brazil.

I’m a very thoughtful and helpful guest. No I haven’t used this site for about nine years, I’ve had very positive experiences hosting and being a guest. If you’d like to learn more about me or my music, check out bronsontennis.com

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting, surfing and sometimes attending meetings.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2008 I survived West Nile Virus, a rare mosquito-caused illness. Despite the menengo-encephalitis it caused and the resulting loss of 27 pounds, I survived and made a full recovery with no permanent damage to my brain or body.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have worked professionally as a bassist, guitarist and singer since 2009, and would be happy to try and teach any of those things (although I don't currently have a bass with me). And I can probably teach English, Spanish or basic Portuguese.
