About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To capture and record the most ridiculous and genuine stories..

ABOUT ME

Originally from Thailand, but moved to New Zealand when I was five. I now consider myself a genuine Kiwi .. well about 85 percent anyway.

I'm a freelance camera assistant and production coordinator for for Film and TV. I shoot short films and music videos whenever we're able to scrounge enough funds to produce them.

I've been bouncing around the world for the past 3 years and it has been phenomenal!

PHILOSOPHY

Create opportunities?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I made a wee short documentary in Japan when I started Couch Surfing.. It's still being edited??

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm short. Around 150cm to be exact. My height provides me with the ability to fit into some pretty obscure places. On one occasion, I found myself squeezing into a high school sports locker (for fun-sies - not as a victim of school yard autocracy). As a result of this ability, I am able to comfortably sleep on a variety of couches, which can range from many tetris shapes.

I started Couch Surfing in Japan and it was one of the best thing that I've ever done in my life. Amazing people, phenomenal stories and an unforgettable experience.

Interests

After living in Vancouver for a year, I have rekindled my love for the great outdoor! I love hiking, rocking climbing, bouldering, caving and anything that involves nature!

My love for food, cinematography and stories will always be constant though!

Music, Movies, and Books

Simply put - There're just way too many good movies... Here are some:
Raging Bull, A very long engagement, Eagle vs Shark, The Dead Girl, Howl's moving castle, My neighbour Totoro, Two Cards One night ..

I love a range of music. A fair amount of Radiohead, a dash of Phoenix, a wedge of Beirut, a slice of Bon Iver, a spoonful of Jazz, a chop of Arctic Monkeys.. I would name some more but, I've run out of ways to present them.

Book: For the moment, Haruki Murakami.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bathing 6 beautiful elephants in the North of Thailand.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love talking about anything related to cameras and pretty pictures. I studied and practice in film and television - so I can certainly talk to you what's up in the industry if you're interested.. but only if you're interested, I wouldn't want to bore you, ha.

To me.. people and stories are very important. I would like to get to know more people and where they come from.
