À propos de moi

CURRENT MISSION

To see everything there is to see in our nation and many others

ABOUT ME

Don't even know where to start. I'm a very complex person. I guess you'll have to meet me to get to know me! But I will say that I’m an opera singer who travels all the time for gigs and auditions.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in doing what you set out to do, and that, as cliche as it sounds, you will ultimately come to regret the things you didn't do much more than the things you did.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

For the past several summers, I have been in Europe doing intensive opera training and performing in productions in Italy and Germany. What all brought it home to me the I am finally starting to see the places I had always read about and dreamed of seeing was the first summer in Italy, and when the opera program was over I hiked on Mt. Vesuvius and saw the ruins of ancient Pompeii--it's something I had been fascinated with since I learned about it in about third grade, and it was truly a breathtaking experience to actually see it.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

Gotta talk with me to really get an idea. I have a hard time being concise about ANYTHING. I may talk your ear off at times, but I want to listen to anything and everything you may have to teach me as well.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

At the moment I cannot host, as my living situation is such that it is not really my offer to make. But I can show travelers around a bit, meet up, and possibly offer rides somewhere if necessary.....
