Hello, I hope all is well with you.

I was born and raised on an island called Guernsey, for the past 7 years I have lived in various locations in Scotland.
I play/write music. I play the guitar, bass, piano and synthesizers. I also partake in audio engineering and have recently been involved with video game development which has found me a new passion. I have my own slogan and website, if you wish to investigate feel free to follow the link http://www.derivebysound.com/

Aside from the technical things I love life and what it has to offer, from interesting cultures, plants and wildlife to how the mind and body works, I have much curiosity inside of me I will never stop learning. Speaking of learning I am attempting the italian language, it is a bit late for me to find it easy but I am making progress so that is the main thing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to visit places cheaply and more locally, and what I mean by this is that instead of going on holiday and visiting specific areas and things, I would like to meet with and spend some time learning and bonding with local people and culture.
At some point in my life I would like to try to live in Italia . I am currently learning the language.

I would also like host as I enjoy meeting new people and learn about them too, recently my selected friends are all foreign. I find people outside of the United Kingdom to be..more united. They are more social (sober), have more to talk about (even with the language barrier) and are usually more motivated to go out and visit somewhere without walls.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am into quite a broad range of music...good thing too or I'd be a lame audio guy.

Movies and books are where I like to get away from reality so definitely sci-fi space and fantasy stuff but I like educational documentaries too.

Mass effect, Stargate, Farscape, The 100, Continuum, The Mummy, DC Universe are a few of my favourite things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Matured into a kind, creative, spontaneous, compassionate and sexy human being.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am clearly spoken and have a fluent understanding of the English language and as I am learning italian and have foreign friends from Romania, Poland, Latvia and Bulgaria I understand the differences that may occur and the difficulties being lost in translation, I am able to help explain things more clearly for you to understand. I know this because at my 2 previous jobs people have come to me to explain what someone has said to them and how they could respond.

I am a musician and audio engineer with video editing experience. I can help and share experiences with this.

I am very generous and compassionate and would be open to voluntary jobs for charity events with hosts and surfers.

I would love to learn more about cultures, people, and life in general.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My love and smiles =)

I can hold a conversation, I know a bit about plants, animals and audio engineering oh and I can cook, I know that should be a standard but if you've met some of the people I have then you would realize how popular microwaves and ready made meals have become.

I could take you out to see various parts of Scotland whether it is nearby or a train journey away.
