Music, Movies, and Books

I know everyone says this but I really do like most types of music apart from Vallenato ofcourse. My taste ranges from House to 80s classics **Shout Out to Prince** via Rap, Reggeaton and Champeta.

My favourite movies would have to be City of God, Wind That Shakes the Barley, Stepbrothers and 21 Jump Street

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I snuck into the Closing Ceremony of the 2012 Olympic Games in London without a ticket and continued to enjoy the spectacle from a seat in the VIP section.
