CURRENT MISSION I have decided to spend the next few years travelling to as many places I have yet to see. Check out www.smartgroups.com/groups/col in to learn more ABOUT ME Although I am older than most who embark upon the sort of travel project I am on, I hope I still have sufficient health, energy and curiosity to make it work! I have a grown up family who do not need me anymore and I hope that I can now enjoy the freedom to go where I want. More to be found on the website: www.smartgroups.com/groups/col in PHILOSOPHY Try to make as much of life and the opportunities that we have available whilst we have time to do so.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Nothing major ... just staying with other musicians etc. but these contacts not made via web.
Music, Movies, and Books
Favorites: Movies: French "new wave", Kubrick, and I can watch pretty well everything where the director seeks to say something original Music: World Music and Jazz.. but again there is not much out there I do not enjoy.. I particularly like "live" performance Books: One of my objectives is to "catch up" on my reading while travelling. I will be kept busy with the backlog of English Literature I have yet to read! Theatre; Yes, Shakespeare and contemporary (but in English)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Place: Alhambra @ Granada, Spain ... I know it is a easy choice but it IS the most amazing place. Performance: I could list some fantastic live gigs I am so grateful to have seen in small clubs. Just five of these might be worth a mention from my early years (1960's) Cream (Clapton,Baker & Bruce) Rolling Stones (when Brian Jones still with them), Jimi Hendrix and Pink Floyd (with Syd Barrett) and Roland Kirk (best of the lot!)
My Interests
Music (I play Guitar), Writing Arts/Creativity generally. To maximise the benefits of the New Technology Experiencing new things (hence my project!)
