Hello everyone! I'm a musician from England now living in Paris. I've been in France for about 8 years and I tour a lot so I get to travel. I compose music for films and documentaries -- music is my job and my hobby. I love to learn about new cultures and try new things, and I'm a good listener.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot and I'm always interested in meeting new people. I sometimes host.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got to conduct an orchestra in Washington Square Park in NYC. I wrote a concerto for toy pianos and a small orchestra which contained members of the NY Philharmonic. I'd never conducted before so it was super stressful, but they were very graceful with me and it went really well.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn and see new things in order to understand them better.
I'm always taking things apart.
I like to learn languages. I speak French and English and I'm slowly learning German.
