Hey there!

My name is Max and I am 21 years old.
I have just finished my degree in Bath in photography and I am going on a ski season in November for 5 months. But before then I want to take some time out to travel around a little and I see a perfect opportunity to discover Italy in a bit more detail. I love the laid back culture and I want some sun on my back.
Really chilled out guy, I love meeting new people, making them laugh and bonding over a beer or two. Over the summer I will be traveling around France and Italy in the hope of taking photographs, drinking great coffee, wine and eating fantastic food along with... taking it very very easy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will be traveling around Italy and France this summer and I want the opportunity to meet new people and get the experience of a city that only a local would know about. I want to be able to eat good food, drink great coffee and meet as many people as I can so I can take their portraits. I want to start a collection of photographs of many diffrent people from all over the world that I may turn into a book in the future. Overall I want to explore and have alot of fun.

Interests

Photography, traveling, meeting new people, exploring cities and trying to find unique little places.

I love good quality coffee and I think the Italians do the best coffee and I want to put this theory to the test.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite bands are Alt-J, Foals, Kendrick Lamar, Bombay Cycle Club, Arctic Monkeys and lots of other diffrent types of music. I don't have a set genre, I am always open to finding new music, I will give anything a listen once.

Favourite films are No Country For Old Men and anything that Quentin Tarantino has directed. I am a bit of a movie buff and know tons of useless knowledge about movies.

Books that have changed my life are Any Human Hearts and The Republic of Trees. Looking to read a little more over the summer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had dinner at Sir Ian McKellan's house in London... it was crazy, I passed him garlic bread.
