我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

It's been a trying few years. Doing this I'm ensuring that I'm still meeting new people and remaining engaged with people.

Building new relationships - i.e. friendship, through mutual interests or professional networking

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

- Volunteered in Tanzania a couple of years ago. Headed a music project between two schools and out together a substantive concert performance. We raised enough money to build a new orphanage and school.

- Saved a man‘s life on a ferry; he went into cardiac arrest and managed to revive him with CPR

教，学，和分享

I'm a former professional French Horn player. I can teach music, whether it be reading and playing or how to play certain instruments.

My German's good enough to take people through the basics :)

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can take you on private scenic flights whilst I'm hours-building! ;) Lets throw a dart at the map and fly there!

I love to cook as well. There's so many different kinds of recipes to share and I love to experiment with food, try out new things.
