我可以与沙发主分享些什么

The world I experienced uniquely through my senses turning into personal life experiences, its something we all have at any age and wholeheartedly think it must be shared with each other.

Also my ancients sounds and voices, I have a strong interest in Sound Mysticism, I play and practice the Jews Harp and Didgeridoo and Tuvan throat singing. And would love to share and improvise with any instrument or anyone with passion for music.
