I am a world traveling artist, I love meeting new people and learning about the culture of new countries. I've grown up traveling all over the world. I was born in California where I now also currently live, but I spent a good deal of my adolescence in Germany discovering Europe.

I currently own my own freelance business in Graphic Design and Branding Consulting, but my passion is my music. I frequently travel on tours performing my songs in smaller local venues and I love it! :) .

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel because I want to get to know new places and people. I would much rather stay in someones home and make new friendships than be isolated in some hotel. The connections I've made over the years is what has made my travels that much sweeter.
