About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Conservation Music: Collaborating with African musicians to encourage conservation through music and national languages. www.conservationmusic.org

ABOUT ME

I'm a passionate person who spends his time exploring nature in many ways and playing guitar in many others. I love to travel and experience other cultures firsthand, and make the most of every moment. Don't leave for tomorrow what you can do today!

PHILOSOPHY

I'd love to have a chat about this sometime.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Conservation Music is a growing movement led by myself and two field team members, supported by a global network of volunteers. Our budget is still incredibly low, as we self-fund our way to creating a better world through the power of music. Slowly but surely we are garnering financial support, but in the meantime, we have a strong need to offset accomodation costs through homestays with like-minded people. We are so grateful for our network of hosts helping make our mission possible!
