So I'm into contemporary alternative .. gotta include:
Anderson Paak (and most tiny desk, acoustic style artists)
John Mayor
Childish Gambino
Musicals (every one ever)
Rap - Carner, Kendrick etc etc
Old school classics - John Lennon, Billy Joel etc

Movies:
Sit me in front of any Quentin Tarantino and I'll be set.
Love any film with Dicaprio as well as comedies such as the American office, Plebs...

Books (I'm a big reader) :
Sooo anything romantically inclined or thought provoking.
CS Lewis - eg Mere Christianity
'Homodeus'
Any Wilbur Smith keeps me smiling
Hemingway - beautiful depictions of European scenery and quite the romantic.
Fitzgerald - the classics

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've spent 6 months training as a missionary in Perth, Nepal and Malaysia (doing exorcisms.. converting ppl left right and centre, even though I’m now without a faith).
