ABOUT ME
I am an outdoor enthusiast!! I also enjoy photography and filmmaking. I grew up on a Caribbean island called Carriacou. I now live in Brooklyn where I am an engineer. I am also film artist and love composing visual art work. I have engaged in film for a while now and I have a growing interest in Cinematography.
I am looking to travel more and meet new friends. I hope to utilize this site to meet new friends and be able to couch surf.

Interests
I love to travel which I have been doing much more of this year. Hiking is another activity that really relaxes me. I enjoying being out in nature. The wind, the trees keep me so grounded. I also want to try hiking, but i have never gotten the opportunity to. I have tried sky diving before - wow that was a lot of fun. Would I do it again - Definitely but no time soon, haha.
I love snowboarding. I tried it once and I was sold. At the same time iI tried Skiing and it was a disaster. I want to try Kayaking or white water rafting, but on a class 2 or 3 rapid.

Music, Movies, and Books
I do no get to watch alot of movies all the time but I enjoy phsycological thrillers, darama, and Scifi films. I love the TV show Fringe, Suits, and Modern Family. Satire comedy is my favorite. Some classic old shows I like are Married with Children.
I read some great books recently; Who Moved My Cheese, Control Theory, all Kevin O'Brien books, and the one I am reading now, The Communication Problem Solver (great book so far on communication).
With regards to music I have noticed that my taste is growing for Jazz, classical music, IDM (Intelligent Dance Music), Dubstep, Cinematic instrumentals, and Violin instrumentals. I have been taking the time to go to more opera shows, which i think are awesome. I also love reggae, old classic reggae from the 70z to the early 90z. (Favorite artist like Don Campbell, Frankie Paul, and Supa Cat.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have been to Dominican Republic. The experience was very humbling. Looking at all the things we take for granted, its great to appreciate what is available to us.
I have jumped out of a plane. That was amazing. For about 90 seconds you are free falling , but it feels like an eternity. Time isnt relevant up there.
I have also spontaneously just went to an airport and took the next flight out of the state. Totally unplanned and everything. This I think everyone should try at least once.
Teach, Learn, Share
Hmmm... still thinking about this one...but I guess I know how to cook, which I can teach someone. I also know how to make films, and I am also very techie.
