A singer-songwriter in exile.
Name: Varies depending on the country and my mood.
Aliases: “That guy with the guitar.”
Occupation:
Writes songs about homesickness while Googling “how to say ‘I miss you’ in the local language.”
In every city, there’s a “favorite spot” from which he’s already been kicked out.
Creative process:
Get melancholy
Write a song
Get melancholy that no one understood it
Translate it into English—now it’s even more incomprehensible.
Weaknesses:
Nostalgia, cheap plane tickets, and open mic nights.
Strengths:
Can survive on applause and instant noodles.
Goal:
To become famous. Or at least to find Wi-Fi without a password.
Status:
Always on tour. Sometimes—in search of himself.
