Overview
About Me
Just a guy from a little village in Wales experiencing everything the world has to offer.
When I'm settled at home I'm pretty much a geek. I work IT, and love anything tech and gaming.
However, whenever I have the opportunity, I love nothing more than to leave it all behind and hit the road.
To travel, to learn, to experience. Meet people, make memories, and push myself out of my comfort zone as much as possible.
The absolute constant throughout my entire life however has been music. I will never skip an opportunity to play a guitar, especially with other people. The feeling of making music with anyone, friend or stranger, is nothing short of magical.
Would have loved to been able to host in the past, but living situations have made it tough (140 square foot London studio apartment). Looking forward to hosting as many as possible when I have the opportunity!
"So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy in life comes from our encounters with new experiences."
