Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To continue to pour my participation & creative vision into the art-collective I am a part of.
ABOUT ME
I'm 23, passionate about this ongoing phenomena we experience as life, & keen to share/swap stories with others. Everyone I've ever met, or will ever meet, has the potential to teach/impart something, & for that I am excited to offer my home to weary travellers.
Someone once said to me that, attempting to describe/write about oneself is just about the biggest waste of time going. I'm not so hard-line, although face-to-face conversation is something I both adore & cherish. I find kinship in the non-judgement of others, otherwise known as an 'easy going' attitude. However, I relish debate & attempt to not be too easy going... ;)
PHILOSOPHY
Non-judgement of others, personal growth, & direct experience wherever/whenever possible (right here, now).
Interests
My first passion is music.
I currently contribute my guitar playing to three projects (a jazz-fusion/prog band, doom metal project drawing influence from Persian classical traditions, & an entirely improvised approach with the 'Ouroboros Collective'), while holding down a chef's job.
Aside from playing & listening to music (jazz/blues/rock/progressive/metal/funk/classical... *sigh* my apologies for the unnecessary categorisations), I enjoy reading, writing poetry, yoga, watching awesome cinema, travelling & a whole host of other activities!
However conversation is probably the greatest joy in my life, aside from music.
I don't claim to be 'well-read'in any one subject, however I find that - being widely read - allows me to have a conversation with just about anyone. Yay!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I spent a month in the Honduran cloud-forest back in 2011. That experience hit me hard, squashed me flat, & inspired the life I now lead. Beautiful times. :)
Perhaps we may share the many others I would find unnecessary to write about here?
Actually, hitch-hiking across Europe springs to mind. Crazy, unbelievable times indeed.
