Music, Movies, and Books

I have way too many to choose from, so it's hard to even narrow it down....but I'll try. Though I don't think I can even narrow down films, so I'm just going to do a big list of albums I love and a few honorable mentions for books and film.

In no particular order -

Music (albums):
1. One of a Kind - Bill Bruford
2. Close to the Edge - Yes
3. In Absentia - Porcupine Tree
4. Choose Your Weapon - Haitus Kaiyote
5. Mutual Friends - Boy
6. because the inter.net - Childish Gambino
7. To Pimp a Butterfly - Kendrick
8. Lowcountry - Envy on the Coast
9. Emily's D+Evolution - Esperanza Spalding
10. The Golden Echo - Kimbra
11. The Bedlam in Goliath - The Mars Volta
12. O My Heart - Mother Mother
13. The Downward Spiral - Nine Inch Nails
14. After Laughter - Paramore
15. OK Computer - Radiohead
16. Something Got Lost Between Here and the Orbit - Royal Canoe
17. 2112 - Rush
18. We Like it Here - Snarky Puppy
19. Aja - Steely Dan
20. Thrill of the Arts - Vulfpeck

No one in there right mind is going to read all of this. But I started with top ten and just kept thinking of more, so here we are. Probably missed some as well.

1. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
2. In Bruges

2. Dune

Phew. Okay, I think I'll go ahead and stop there. You're welcome.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recently, I did a solo trip to Alaska for around two weeks. It was one of the most incredible trips I've ever done, and I met some fantastic people along the way, some of whom I still talk to!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn all about people and cultures from around the world - local quirks, hot spots, general life styles. And I'd be happy to give some basic music lessons to anyone who is interested! I play guitar, piano, drums, bass, saxophone, and a few others.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd be happy to cook a meal, help clean, share stories, or play some music for/with you!

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Monaco, New Zealand, Switzerland, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In
