How's it goin! My name is Tyler and I'm a good natured musician who is about to embark on an dream trip through Europe! I'm. A banjo player, blues musician, cook, sailor, writer, and all around creative type. I've worked on boats for a number of years sailing up and down the east and west coast of the United States. I make a living playing street music, in pubs and bars, also house parties. I'm super down to earth, open minded, jolly, and fun to be around! Let's hang out!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
