My name is Selle Inti Sellink, I’m 29 years old, half Peruvian half Dutch.

I’m a filmmaker working mostly as a Sound Designer on films but I am also a film director, currently working on a film based in Peru.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Heading to LA to show the first film I made at NeueHouse somewhere in Hollywood, I would love to meet some cool people (: let’s see what happens

Interests

I’ve been a sound designer since I was 19 and prior to that i’ve always been recording stuff and editing it. Filmmaking or film in itself is something special to me.

My dad’s a cook. He passed down some love for cooking, I’m not to good with Peruvian dishes but I’m no fool either (;

I’ve played guitar since I was 6. Sad to say i’ve been playing the same songs these last few years, time to pick it back up..

I can enjoy a night of conversation accompanied by a bottle of nice wine as much as anyone, I do it often (:

TLDR: Film, Food, Music, Philosophy

Music, Movies, and Books

Pretty broad musical taste but some Connan Mockasin, King Krule, Kendrick, F Ocean, Andy Shauf are always welcome. Lately been listening to more funk, Darondo🏼

Last few films I really liked were Las Bestias and Beautiful Beings. My all time favourite might still be Leviathan From Andrey Zvyagintsev

I read to little but recently I’ve come to appreciate this Dutch literature; Nescio, Toon Tellegen and also Anton de Kom. I feel like Anton de Kom’s “We slaves by suriname” should be compulsory on school in the Netherlands, if you get the chance read it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve went on a journey to Peru looking for my dog I left 25 years ago. Spoiler alert, I found it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’ve got an intern whom I teach how to Sound Design a film from start to finish basically, I feel like you should never stop learning that’s why I start with a furniture making course in about a weeks time. Really looking forward to that!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook, and bring you along to the festival if you like filmfestivals and all that (: some wine from Europe sound good?
