Hi. My name is Richard.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I guess I want to show people how great London is. And make friends all over the world.

I work as a motion graphics animator in London. I also work part time as a sea shepherd, herding sheep and goats in the ocean. Sometimes I like to swing a sheep from a very long rope from my helicopter and try to hit targets that I've set up on the ground. It's fun and the sheep enjoy it.*

Lived in London for over 10 years. Also lived in Los Angeles, California for 3 years.

*No sheep have been harmed. Any sheep that may have been killed were already dead before I killed them.

Musica, film e libri

I love George Orwell. 1984 is my favourite book. Jack Kerouac's 'Maggie Cassidy' is really beautiful. Frankenstein is a great book. Solaris is genius. A Brave New World - I like that more than 1984, but 1984 is still my favourite book even though I prefer A Brave New World. There are actually lots of books that I like more than 1984, but 1984 is my favourite book, even though it isn't. Iain Banks, Wasp Factory. Iain Banks, The Bridge - there's another one (that I like more than I like 1984). 'The Dice Man'. Is great. A Clockwork Orange is a faultless book as well. I wouldn't change a word of it. It is better than George Orwell's 1984.
