I've worked in the music industry, in museums and art centres and for charity/non profit festivals.
I'm currently an apprentice to my father and am trying to travel a little.

I enjoy meeting people and learning about different cultures and customs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the idea of meeting people and hearing their perspective on wherever I'm travelling to - and it's only a chance that you'll have that interaction with Airbnb so I've found couch surfing.

I'm also happy to arrange people staying at my family home on The Isle of Wight where possible. I live out in the countryside, not very close to anything (quite a luxury to some)

Interests

I love music (from Louis Armstrong to Radiohead; Vibracathedral Orchestra to Destiny's Child)
I love Art (Bridget Riley, Duchamp, Baquiat, Dali)
Culture (Architecture, literature, art, music from history in all cultures)
I make things out of wood and grow organic vegetables in the family garden.
I enjoy to cook vegan and am very open minded about other peoples views on the matter.
I am a conscious egalitarian that enjoys deep conversations and progressive thought.
