CURRENT MISSION

Learn, learn, learn.

ABOUT ME

I am a musician. A composer, conductor, and Pianist.
I enjoy traveling but haven't done anywhere near enough of it yet which is one of the reasons I have joined this website! I like to think I am open minded and liberal and I am always ready for a good conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy life while it lasts.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am just as happy to host people as I am to be hosted, although I will not always be able to do so. I would also like to hang out with other couchsurfers as I have got on very well with all I have met.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've done quite a lot of hosting and surfing! My references below show what I've been up to.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like so many films, music, and books that it is impossible to list them all but I will try some highlights.
Films: Pretty much anything by Werner Herzog, Pretty much anything by Sergio Leone. Films by Ingmar Bergman: The Seventh Seal, Wild Strawberries. Woody Allen Films. Lord of the Rings Trilogy (Also a great book). Christopher Nolan's films are great as well. The list goes on...

Music
Being a musician I can become very boring when talking about this topic. I like a lot of different types of music but the main styles I play are Jazz and Classical.

Books
One Hundred Years of Solitude, Catch 22, The Catcher in the Rye, A Picture of Dorian Gray, A Scanner Darkly, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, Lord of the Rings, Wuthering Heights, loads of others...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The fist time one of my pieces was played in a concert was pretty amazing. Another was watching the sunrise over the Rocky Mountains (as cheesey as that sounds).

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to teach people some music in exchange for a bit of their language. (If your language is English then I'll teach you some music anyway, if you like.)

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Gibraltar, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In
