Because of two reasons. One, there is so much that I want to see and experience but not enough money in my pockets to be able to stay in paid accommodation very often. And second reason is because there is no better way to learn about the culture and story of a country, city or a village than by spending time with the people who live there!

As a graduate music student, and a starting musician I try and learn from and appreciate all sorts of music. I really like compositions by Hans Zimmer and John Williams, and enjoy listening to tropical & deep house, country, Folk, jazz, blouse, rock and psytrance, though my ears and heart are always open to new music!
