I like to consider myself a relaxed, good-natured and light-hearted person. Half of my time is spent working at a busy London museum and the other half I spend making films with my partner in life and work, Laura Spini.

After meeting on the London Film School MA Filmmaking course, Laura and I have made it our mission to live, work and travel together, in the name of fun and friendship.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Laura and I are looking to see more of the world and we are very eager to meet new people and learn about the places we visit. In exchange we hope to share a few smiles and laughs with people along the way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We had a short film that we made screened at festivals around the world, that was pretty fun.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We are happy to share our experience of low budget filmmaking; how to make something nice without too much money, how to keep on top of your risk assessments, how to be polite, humble and get on well with everyone.

Laura and I can cook up a (hopefully) nice meal for you.
