Franchesa is a native Nashvillian who has worked in almost every aspect of the music business as well as children's education. She is also an actress, author, poet,photographer and videographer. Our life is about being creative. We find creative ways to travel and try to show others that IT IS POSSIBLE TO LIVE YOUR DREAMS.

PHILOSOPHY

Live every day to its fullest! Dream big and live your dreams!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far, we have been hosted by many wonderful people on our four month trip around Europe and we have hosted a number of surfers from as far away as Australia. We stay with CSers when we tour with our music and we always feel blessed that people want to host us. We tell everyone about couchsurfing, now that we have discovered it. We hope to host many more CSers in Nashville
(when we're off the road) and someday perhaps become music ambassadors for CS. In OCTOBER 2011 WE HOSTED 18 COUCH SURFERS WE HAD 5 COUNTRIES IN OUR HOUSE @ ONCE:)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have made so many new friends:)
Host us or come and stay with us in Nashville and we can tell you some great CS stories:)

Teach, Learn, Share

We can teach how it is possible to make your dreams and your life the same thing :)
We learn from everyone we meet, every CS host or guest, every concert we attend (or perform), every mountain path we wander...
We share music and stories and smiles...

What I Can Share with Hosts

We give music and buy dinner for our host. Always keeping the space you invite us to use clean and quiet. We also tell stories and share travel ideas and photos.
Cds we have made 24 let us know if you would like one as a gift.
