CURRENT MISSION India

Clarinet, sax, harmonica, ney, bass clar, Chinese flute - music is the most interesting to me. Find my webpage and listen. Love to learn, travel, live. Typically play with a bunch of different ensembles: Brazilian, Balkan, African, blues, jazz, Greek, Turkish, Moroccan.

Now doing more my own thing. DP Quintet is my latest release (stream at dexterpayne.com) Married now - amazing and awesome! Learning Mandarin... how to travel as a duo... and how to be present for self and other simultaneously.

Love to learn. Learning to live.
PS- Used to Bbe verified on this site and yes, I have surfed and hosted. Apparently that has all disappeared.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meeting people is an essential aspect of living on earth, and by far the richest way to travel.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In the past, my travel started with old friends. And I have left home armed with contacts, friends' friends. Most I never called - the people I meet are always interesting, vibrant, fun, compelling... and just exactly who I need to be acquainted with.
Couchsurfing was essential in finding longer term boarding in people's homes.

Centres d'intérêt

Clarinet, sax, harmonica, nay, people, spirit, art, food, nature, health. Peace. Learning Bansuri.
