It's clean, simple, pretty and quite relaxing. This ...

A general guideline I was taught since a very early age goes about those lines: it is important to remember to put 100% of your efforts, never giving up but most importantly have the wisdom to know when to be patient and when to press hard.

Back in December 31st, 2012, one of my Life-Mentors said that the Universe will never toss us anything we cannot handle. Following this thought, I came to the realization that we have no excuse to be drifting in life waiting for things to happen. On the contrary, we MUST plan as if failing is not an option. When you plan your life, you will find ch...

In 1973 I went searching for a guitar maker to make a special acoustic instrument for me. Instead, I was introduced to - and then became obsessed with - the art/craft/science of guitar making. The more I learned about guitar making the more I was drawn to it. Not long after this introduction, I decided to pursue musical instrument making as my voca...
