About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am a photographer living in central London (A few minutes walk from Abbey Road, Regents Park & Baker Street.)
My work has always been about people & life so being a visual artist I want to photograph the world it's places, faces and of course the hearts of all those I come into contact with.

ABOUT ME

Artistic, Calm, Considerate, Dedicated (To what I believe in), Easy-going, and of course intrepid!

Loves Art, People, Nature, People Watching.
Photography, (also, conversing with like-minded individuals :¬)

Philosopher, hunter of experiences in search of truths and the stories that bind them.

Looking forward to meeting you.

Best

Hugh

There are those who may,
And those who will - Or so they say.
Lastly, there are those special few.
Who say nothing,
But in their actions Do! (HH)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to use my expertise with people, communities and social relationships with my professional photography/video experience to show the places where I travel, the faces I meet and the hearts of those who make an impact on me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Very little with CS at present as I have mostly travelled with family, but I have slept on many sofa's/floors over the years with friends and sometimes complete strangers who have helped out of the blue.

Interests

Anthropology, Art, Communicating, Cooking, Nature, Photography, Travel, Walks, Life.

I also do outreach in London with the homeless, I enjoy this and also the company of those I meet and speak with while doing this work.
