CURRENT MISSION

People, wandering, music - how I get my kicks.

ABOUT ME

Jive-talking therapist, writer, publisher and lay-about from Edinburgh looking for jive, music, food and beautiful sights.

PHILOSOPHY

I love collaborating with other people and believe that one of the most important things in life is recognising that it's all relative - and meeting other people is the best way to explore that.
