about me
Im a juggler, musician (with an almost diploma in jack-of-all-Jazz) and a aspiring busker. for the next little while im a gypsy travelling looking for inspiring juggles and jams!
I worked as a pianist for awhile, at the moment im focusing on the guitar, being a more travel friendly instrument, digging on the bossa and old jazz standards, the grasp of jazz is as far away as is seven balls but its fun to toss stuff into the air and watcth it drop around you as you flail about.
im also interested in balloon modelling and general clowning circusy stuff. slack line is always fun. I ride unicycle and contact juggling holds a particular place in my heart

How exciting.time to travel. time to learn some more tricks.maybe i can shake the stagnation from my bones and release some inspiration into my blood stream. first stop the U.S of A. going to find my character wherever it may be, lurking in the sinisterness of all beauty,creeping just under the surface tension of the world.
