Hey! My name's David and I'm from SE London/Kent, UK. I've lived here all my life and now it's time to go!

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

I'm looking to travel across large portions of the globe in the coming years and thought it made sense to step into the community and get accustomed with it. What I've heard from friends who've used the site is that there are possibilities for incredibly interesting situations, conversations and connections to surface... Which I am well up for.

In the future, once I'm re-settled from exploring and jaunting, I'd want to return the favour and offer a sofa/bed/sofa-bed/shredded newspaper pile/etc. to the weary legged. For the moment I am relying on the good will of others :)

Oh, and maybe we can go and dance, party or have coffee too! Yeah!

Интересы

I am an artist, and my practise is in moving image, although I also draw and work as a videographer. I'm a fan of these guys: Nam June Paik, David Hall, John Smith, Guy Sherwin, Peter Tscherkassky, Cornelia Parker, Maya Deren, Caravaggio, Goya, Giorgi de Chirico, Pieter de Hooch, Akira Kurosawa, Ingmar Bergman, Peter Greenaway, Ben Wheatley, Powell & Pressburger, David Lynch, Lynne Ramsey, David Cronenberg, John Carpenter, Luis Buñuel, Orson Welles, Andrei Tarkovsky.

I'm a huge lover of cinema, radio and literature, walking/camping, and comedy/improv.

I live a relatively simplistic life, and aim to continue with this throughout my travels and explorations across continents. I'm heading to India in the autumn and plan to head over land back to Europe once the visa has run out. No idea how this is gonna work out, although at some point I expect I'll get stung on the arse by a scorpion.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

Share = Teach/Learn + cooking really good dinner X decent footwear (and a big ole kiss)

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

I'm pretty well educated in film and have a fair amount of knowledge about this and that in music, arts, comedy, blah blah... and I'm alright at telling anecdotes and I can keep conversations flowing into the early hours upon request!

I've had a few good and strange adventures that I'd happily chat about over some tea!
