ABOUT ME

I am passionate about human potential. I believe we collectively determine if the world gets better or worse, and am committed to doing my best to make it better.
I love to dive into new experiences, and see new places, cultures and people. Learning to speak a foreign language gives me incredible joy.
I love music and the violin. It is a life-long companion to me, and I love discovering more every day. I have been playing professionally since 2011, and feel so grateful to being doing it. I love to learn new styles of music, and always look to expand my horizons. Most of my experience so far has been with electronic fusion, gypsy jazz, and live looping.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing connects people whose spirits transcend culture. Many times I have met people that instantly feel like lifelong friends.

I joined couchsurfing in the summer of 2009, and used it to surf with amazing people through France and Austria. My eyes were instantly opened to the potential of this site. Since that time I have used couchsurfing to make some of my best friends in Costa Rica, Thailand and China.

Interests

I'm interested in understanding who we are, where we came from, why we are the way we are, where we choose to go, and how we can do this. I'm interested in the spark of inspiration, wherever it shows up. I personally feel most inspired through music, language, travel, philosophy, health, yoga and meditation.
