Interests

Music, music, music, cycling, boats, hiking, skiing, growing things, camping, swimming, fishing, maps & globes, nursing cups of tea, Scottish beaches, Norwegian beaches, cardigans, ice cream, being awful at dancing, photography, board games, sustainability, slow travel, permaculture, environmental activism. I basically just love being outdoors and being on the move, there's nowhere I'd rather be than on the road with a guitar in hand, cliche as that may sound.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'll enjoy any movie that amuses, amazes or challenges me.

Joni Mitchell. Elliott Smith. Laura Marling. Leonard Cohen. Velvet Underground. New Order. Billy Bragg. The Beatles. Belle & Sebastian. Toots & the Maytals. Herman Dune. Jawbreaker. Jonathan Richman. Black Flag. Anything Eddie Vedder has touched.

I am yet to get bored of reading Orwell, though I really love popular science books like Jared Diamond, James Lovelock & Simon Winchester.

Teach, Learn, Share

WIll happily teach people how to play the guitar, mandolin, sew, knit, crochet, bake as well as share everything I know about music and the environment.

Would love to learn any new instrument, I'm currently attempting the accordion but would welcome anything less or more adventurous with open arms. I am also very interested in learning more about other cultures and languages.
