    Description

    Hello!! I'm an english guy living in the south of France. I'm a sound engineer, and I travel a lot for work. I'm probably traveling more than 6 months of the year recently! I bought a house (kinda 2 houses) and the project is to create a residential space with a recording studio. And to offer artistic retreats and a professional but very comfortable, relaxed music recording environment. Also other kinds of creative retreats, and just a welcoming chilled vibe. The village is absolutely awesome, there's an experimental electronic music festival organised by the mayor, and the Jardin Extraordinaire, just next door! Plus a gin distillery! And skiing 30 mins away!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I can share information about music technology, and have a small music recording setup at home. I have traveled extensively and can also provide some information about local treks and walks. I love to cook for people so we will certainly be enjoying some great meals together and with the small group of local creative people that live round here in the mountains.....
