Overview
About Me
I'm a film maker from the UK currently travelling across the US! As I type / you read this I am in Paradise, California, shooting a documentary on wildfires. I'm a writer, spoken word artist type person who is extremely easy going and up for whatever. I travel the world making documentaries so am naturally curious and interested in everything!
I've just started my new production company - www.newtakefilms.com - and you can check out my life there!
I'm looking for hosts that are up for hanging out and taking me whilst I am travelling through Miami from the 15 - 20th of May for a short-documentary I'm working on.
The 18th of May is my birthday, so if you're up for a drink too then even better!

Music, Movies, and Books
Hunter S Thompson, Richard Ayoade, Irvine Welsh, Charles Bukowski, Jack Kerouac, all the Qauntum Leap books. I read a fair bit.
Comedy wise I am into my dark comedy so unless the likes of Louie CK, Doug Stanhope, It's Always Sunny, Green Wing, Garth Merenghi's Darkplace, Ricky Gervais, Brass Eye, The Day Today, Thick of It, Curb, Armando Iannuchi show appeals you're probably going to press charges over some of the conversation topics.
Music all time favourite is Bob Marley, discovered him (personally) when I was 7. Other than that Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Jimi Hendrix, Joplin etc..
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Filmed an undercover documentary in Pakistan
Hitch hiked across Morocco on a race to get back to Madrid
Got stuck in the military uprising / occupation in Peru
