About Me

My name is matt muirhead i live in baltimore, MD. I just went around the world on a ship, the peaceboat , I love to travel, Im really into filesharing soulseek username "eichino" (with lots of great music to share) i like most stuff from the 60..s musicwise, Im an artist, there is nothing I like more than to sit down and make something. over the last year I have really expanded my repertoire of mediums, Ive started making jewelry, silver, working with metal is really rewarding, I find copper to be perhaps the most beautiful substance on the planet (next to water) , i used to live in chicago, before that I lived in Toledo Ohio, its a boring-as-fuck sort of place, but the people I chose to surround myself with are some of the coolest people in the world, and thanks to myspace Im able to keep in touch with them. travel is great but whenever I think of where my home is, I think of the Glass city! Here in Tokyo I teach one to one english to japanese people, its a fun job that sits me down for 45 minutes at a time, and I just talk to people although slagged no end by most gaijin, I find it to be extremely rewarding.
