[pianotech] Piano Tech of No Fixed Abode

[tnrwim at aol.com]

When I was tuning in Southern Colorado I heard about an itinerant tuner, who traveled the plain states, south in the winter then back up north in the summer. He had a pick up truck with a camper, in which he lived. he more or less had regular customers, but when he got to a town, he would go to a church and start asking if there were pianos to be tuned. He would stay as long as he was needed, and then move on. 

It's a lifestyle I've thought about, but I just can't get myself away from Hawaii. :)

              You might be interested to read the Blog of      itinerant piano tuner & technician Richard Roberts.  
      
      Richard is carrying out what might be called a lifestyle      experiment, partly triggered by a rebellion against the costs of      house rental or purchase in London.  He sleeps outside, and keeps      tools to a minimum.  RIchard's Blog is well written and      illustrated and makes interesting reading. His website (click on      the Blog link at the top) is at http://www.piano-tuning.co.uk/
      
      I couldn't do it - I think I'd be dead in a week!
      
      Best regards,
      
      David.
