CURRENT MISSION

To create projects, whether they be writing, acting, making stuff, drawing.

ABOUT ME

Jon and I are a British couple. We have been working in the South of France for the last two years and we are now in the North of Spain and excited about exploring the South (I lived in Barcelona for ten years when I was younger and am looking forward to discover more about this country, my second home).

We are extremely sociable yet respectful of the need for privacy and personal space, especially when staying in another person's home (we have done work exchange for over two years and have learnt a lot about co-habiting). We are curious and love learning about people, new places and different cultures. The most important part of our day to day is to find fun and humour.

I am an actress/writer and Jon is a sound recordist and photographer. We also run a small online shop selling vintage clothes and pieces.

I speak English, Spanish, Catalan and French. Jon tries.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to juggle scarfs (i'm not very good and I may not remember, but it's something...) or how to align your posture with Alexander technique,
Jon can teach some bits of guitar, camera techniques and he can share his special hand clapping trick!
