Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

have both surfed and hosted and have met some great people in the process...

Interests

Music - both writing and performing it- many of my travels now are for gigs. I just released an album which you can find here is you should care to listen: gazeisghost.bandcamp.com/ (you may invite me to stay, then discover you hate my music and bitterly regret your decision. I would like to spare you that ;))
I also love painting, and reading, I guess that's a big one. And discussing these things with people-that's nice.
