Greetings from Paris, France (but feel free to listen to “Paris, Texas” by Ry Cooder, if you don’t know it yet).
I am one of those “mature” absolute beginner. Never played music, never thought I could… and I’m loving it. it’s never too late 
I especially want to share my gratitude towards Justin and his team for making my learning journey so pleasant.
Enjoy !
