About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing tends to provide a more engaging and realistic experience of a place.

Interests

I'm not great at focusing, so tend to keep a number of parallel projects and interests. At the moment the big ones would be :
- Agriculture and technology : this is my job, I work for an Australian company 'Observant' buidling remote water monitoring products, it's a big interest of mine even beyond work.
- Hydroponics/Indoor Farming : I'm just dabbling in this at the moment as a hobby, testing things out but would love to get more serious about it one day
- Photography : I do a lot of landscape photography at the moment, including an exhibition (https://www.instagram.com/rowanchase/)
- Guitar : Trying to learn some West African stuff atm, Ali Farka Touré, Fatou Seidi Ghali
- Drawing : here and there
- Cooking : really love learning all the simple hearty recipes

Music, Movies, and Books

I love a wide variety of music, Jazz, Ambient, West African 'desert blues', 60s/70s AfroPop (Syli Authentic, Bembeya Jazz National, Sorry Bamba etc) electronic, Austalian rock/grunge (Gareth Liddiard/Drones, Dirty Three, Nick Cave), that r&b type pop (not sure what it's called?) Solange, Rhye, Blood Orange etc...
