THE UOTTAWASCOTTY EXPERIENCE
Hello and welcome to my website. If your visiting this site you have probably stumbled across one of my YouTube videos on a wide variety of topics that may include, but are not limited to, music related activities such as performance, gear topics, repairs to gear, science/engineering oriented videos on a wide range of topics, automotive and marine repiar with emphasis on motorhome, travel trailer, and PWC's, and all kinds of various VLOG's for pure entertainment purposes. I basically try and document what I am up too on a daily basis and I try to do my best to share that with the world in the hopes that I may contribute to the YouTube community in an educational and entertainment manner. I am a big fan of YouTube, I have benefited greatly from the endless free education recieved from other great channels, and am eager to participate in the exchange of wisdom and entertainment as I full heartedly believe that YouTube exemplifies the "good part" of the world wide web.
​
As far as my background is concerned, I am a full time working class musician/entertainer from the Ottawa area, and I perform regularly every week in various venues all over the city. Music has been my passion and primary source of income for my entire life. I would say probably about 1/2 of my videos on YouTube deal with music related topics and the other half deal with all the other facets of my interests.
​
I have lived a hard life. I lived out of my van and subsequently in my 31 foot class A motorhome, which I rebuilt, an experience that has shaped who I am but was a very tough period of life for sure. Winter in Canada is no joke when your in a van!
After living in my van for quite some time, I purchased a small piece of land in western Quebec, where I lived in a 33 foot travel trailer. This piece of land is featured on my channel in several videos, and I call it my "camp". Much of the content on my channel deals with recreational vehicles, an area that I have grown quite competant with having to do so many repairs. During this time I was working as a high school math and science tutor as well as attending the University of Ottawa. I enjoy education and helping others understand topics in science, math, and engineering, many of my videos deal with these types of topics.
​
Some of my mechanical experience was garnered through the early parts of my life where I had a business tuning, repairing, and rebuilding pianos, a venture that I had a good deal of success in, but after a type of mental breakdown, I lost everything I had, which is how I ended up in my van! I regularly apply the mechanical skills I picked up through this period in various current projects and videos. I have a good deal of experience with engines, vehicles, and electrical devices, which are often featured on my channel.
​
Thanks for stopping by my page and I hope you enjoy my videos !

Sincerely: UOTTAWASCOTTY
