CURRENT MISSION

To personally introduce the concertina in to the homes of many.

ABOUT ME

I play the concertina, professionally. I love all music and I love making music, for people who are interested to hear. I love lots of instruments but the concertina is the best, don't tell me it isn't or I will cry for hours. Tell me about something else as little and cute that can go in a little box and follow where ever I go, and can make so much music, and I won't believe you. No, I'll listen in awe and ask to see it, and if such a thing could be produced. We'll jam!

PHILOSOPHY

I think we might all be lucky enough to have a purpose and my purpose might just be to play the concertina. Why? I don't know yet, but I hope I will find out.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I believe the world has said too long "What is a concertina?" I think it is time they know. So I have prepared a concert I am ready to go on the road. Who knows I might even show up at your door. Let me know if the Busking is good in your town!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't officially "couch-surfed" yet. I have, however, awoken on many a friendly couch. I always try to make myself useful and know good recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I also know how to pick up old beer bottles and empty ashtrays but I find that chore some what less enjoyable.
