Hi,
Im a 26yr old, born and raised in South London. A filmmaker by trade I specialise in a Cinematography (that's the person who composes the shot through camera and lighting design). I went to an arts school where I graduated with a degree in Film Production. Im pretty easy to talk to, I love going out and socialising with friends whether over dinner, at the cinema or dancing in a club somewhere. I love to laugh and my family as well as friends bring great smiles to my face. Challenging myself is key so travelling and and have new perspectives and understanding of other people and cultures is a passion of mine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Im couch surfing, because it was recommended by fellow friends who have travelled somewhere new for the first time by themselves. I love meeting new people, learning new stories and discovering new cultures. With couchsurfing I feel this is a great way to get all of the above plus more, as im moving to Amsterdam May 2015

Interests

I love music but seeing it live is a great passion, every summer i try to go to at least one music festival. As mentioned Im a filmmaker so I love all genres and accept any length from 60 seconds to 3hours and love all things weird and wonderful. I like football too and a passionate Liverpool supporter (i know im from london but when we converse you will understand later) I love cooking and eating lol and would like to consider myself pretty good at both, and always love learning new recipies.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all genres of music but my first love is Hip Hop and then reggae/dancehall and RnB of the 90s (which were all integral to growing up in my household).

My favourite movie is difficult because they are for different moods usually but
top three right now Scarface with Al Pacino, Toy Story (all of them) Dancehall queen and la vie en rose because its just too beautiful.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Idk about one but ive done some things im very proud of most recently curating and hosting my own event, showcasing short films overseas and across the UK, with Live Music, a DJ and some spoken word. It was a big task but a valuable one and I've learnt a lot and become a little more confident in my skillset :)

I also travelled to South Africa with a charity and lived in a rural community for 3 months teaching in the local schools and communities sexual health, life skills and off my own back ICT as we had a computer room at school and even the teachers didn't know how to use them so a very rewarding and enlightening experience for sure :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share some stories, some culinary delights, music,movies and laughs.
I am up for learning anything
and finally I can teach you basic film or photography practices if you like.
