About Me

ABOUT ME

I was born in the UK but have lived in France all my life. I've been working in Paris and working in music production in a jazz club for the past 5 years. Very recently i left the big city and have set up base in the south west countryside and have now become a musician, moving around for different projects.

PHILOSOPHY

"Everything you've ever wanted is on the other side of fear".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfed in UK, India, USA... Would love to host also but that time (in which i have enough space) has not yet come !

Interests

I love music and play guitar and various other instruments. Been lucky to work in venues and with many artists which allowed me to absorb more music from around the world than i could have imagined !
I also have big interests in nature and wildlife, travelling, litterature, cinema, cooking and discovering new cultures and ideas.
