I've lived in Barcelona since 1988. I had a career as a minor rock star, met my wife, had kids and decided that I ought to take life a little more seriously.

I now teach English at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and have recently had my first book, Going Native in Catalonia, published by NativeSpain.

My current project is www.spain-football.org - a kind cultural fan site with travel info for football tourists, holidaymakers and expats.
