My name is Reece Pickering!

Hell of a happy go person who loves to be surrounded with positive people. (No offence if you're painfully miserable).

I'm an Englishman who's moving to NYC ( If you like Game Of Thrones, I have the Northern British Accent, just for shits and giggles).

I would love to see more of NYC, as I'll be moving to Brooklyn it'd be great to see the area and meet good people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling continually from the age of 17, travel is engrained in my photography as is my passion to meet new people.

Interests

I'm an editorial and advertising photographer specialising in stylised portraiture and creative reportage. If you hadn't guessed by this point, I live and breathe photography!

I live on a plant-based diet in contribution to my ocean conservation work with Sea Shepherd UK. All things are precious here on this planet, just like to do my bit.

Music, Movies, and Books

All things Spike Jonze, Susan Sontag, Foals and Coldplay.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I quit my job once to live and take portrait of refugees. But isn't this life in itself amazing?

Teach, Learn, Share

My host would benefit from my teachings in photography, how to develop a visual language and the opportunity to assist with personal work and have a sweet time.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A new perspective and an appreciation for all things visual, and a ton of laughs.

I do well in the kitchen too.
