I’m a Scottish bagpiper and filmmaker currently traveling the world in my full traditional scottish attire.

Everywhere I’ve gone, I’ve met incredibly kind and interesting people, and those human connections have been the most rewarding part of the journey. I’m committed to traditional Scottish music and continue to pursue it at a high standard, while also developing my filmmaking as a long-term career.

I am curious, hard-working, and love learning from the people I meet. I have hosted many Couchsurfers in my flat back in Edinburgh, and always aim to be a thoughtful, respectful guest who contributes positively to the spaces we share.

In the long run, I hope to succeed as a filmmaker and eventually raise a strong, grounded family.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet fascinating people, especially people who are musicians, entrepreneurs, artists, content creators or have unique cultural knowledge. I love the exchange of food and it has already been so amazing getting to experience so many great meals.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - I listen mainly to traditional folk music, but sometimes classical or jazz.
Films - I enjoy independent cinema and prefer to visit the theatre than to watch films from home.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycle 150 miles with my family and dog (she was running next to us)

Teach, Learn, Share

Something I can share is what expertise I do have of filmmaking, particularly editing. I would love to share my music with you as well if your ears can bare 100dB of 400-900Hz.
