CURRENT MISSION

Looking forward to summer at the beach

ABOUT ME

I work in film and TV production as a director of documentaries, and a cinematographer across several genres. I guess I do this because I am always curious about the world around me, and for the same reason I love to travel and to meet new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in the idea of sharing resources so that travel is possible for everyone. I like meeting new people and hearing their stories, gradually piecing together the jigsaw of humanity.

Interests

Music, politics, dance, science, disco, food...

Music, Movies, and Books

Okay, just a taste because where do you stop?

Fiction: Fishboy - Mark Richards; White Noise - Don DeLillo; The Dispossessed - Ursula K. Le Guin; The Book of Laughter and Forgetting - Kundera; anything by Will Self.

Music: All of it save country and western, but my heart belongs to disco. 90s hip hop. 80s pop. Hum a few bars and I'll let you know.

Movies: The whole gamut of ridiculous from Pedro Almodóvar to Catherine Breillat to Ben Stiller.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been shot at by ISIS. True story.
