I am a 31 year old female and wear many hats. I work remotely as a musician and digital marketer. The benefit of running my own businesses is that I can work as little or as much as I'd like while traveling the world, meeting amazing people, and discovering new and fascinating ways of life.

I am fun-loving and responsible and a lover of all animals - so, if you have pets, no problem!

I hold a Bachelors degree in Music from Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA and a Masters degree in Archaeology/Cultural Heritage Studies from University College London (UCL) in the UK.

I enjoy performing and recording my original music (think Norah Jones meets Regina Spektor), all forms of art, exercise, and travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love couch-surfing, as it opens me up to a broader view and understanding of the world. I truly love people and places and discovering life's hidden treasures. I am open to all types of living situations in any city/country and am very quick to adapt.

So far, I have lived in Boston, New York, Greece, Scotland, and England, as well as traveled through a lot of the world. I most recently finished a European tour with artist, Devin Townsend :)

Food: I try to cook mostly vegan when I can. However, when I'm traveling that lifestyle becomes difficult to maintain (especially when one wants to experience new cultures and their practices - therefore, I'm mostly open to all types of food but maintain a healthy balance of cooking vegan at home and being open-minded to non-vegan options when traveling).
