Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Making the most of moving to Berlin and enjoying being a freelancer!
ABOUT ME
I'm a producer with a passion for travelling and all things Latin American. I try and make my big trips more memorable by doing little media projects as I go - the best was 7 months around Central America and Mexico in 2012 researching local music scenes - ending up in some unusual invitations: a Belizean wake, a rave on a tropical Honduran island, Panamanian pop idol and a Sandinista rally in Nicaragua!
I did the 2013 Mongolian Car Rally - driving over 10000 miles to Ulan Bator in Mongolia in a car with an engine of less than a litre for charity.
I'm hoping to meet like minded people who are able to show me the hidden gems of their cities and especially those who want to take me to good gigs and share local food.
Other interests: eating, reading, social activism, indie films, street art and photography
