ABOUT ME

Objectively, mine is a pretty standard life-story but subjectively my life seems to have been slightly crazy!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My flatmate Will has hosted some people and I've enjoyed meeting them so I decided to try it out myself. I like the idea of hosting people from around the globe; its kind of like travelling without leaving home!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
I grew up listening largely to alt-rock but after I recently dusted off a beastie boys record I bought from when I was younger a chain reaction was set off and hip-hop eventually ended up permeating it's way into my bones!

Beastie Boys, Tribe Called Quest, Gravediggaz, Nas, Public Enemy, Wu Tang Clan, EricB and Rakim, The Roots, GZA/Genius, Gangstarr, Biggie Smalls, Ghostface Killah, Chef Raekwon, Eels, Lisa Germano, Nick Cave, PJ Harvey, Silver Jews, Beck...

Films:
I have an on-off obsessive relation with films. I particularly like Bergman, Almodovar, Truffaut, Allen and Vigo

Books:
At the risk of sounding pretentious, I really fucking like Proust (what I've managed to read so far!)
