Overview
About Me
Small time explorer living in an urban jungle. My adventures are usually impulsive and inadequately planned, but have always turned out just fine so far.
Currently taking on my greatest challenge yet, having very recently moved to France with my girlfriend! Living in the sunny south of France, working as a cycle courier in the city.
I am also a sound recordist and editor. I generally find work in short films, documentaries and animations. One day I hope to do games too! My current personal project is creating surround sound audiobooks for children.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To reinstate my faith in humanity. Theres nothing like accepting kindness and passing it forward.

Teach, Learn, Share
I love recording sounds and try to take my microphones everywhere I go. Really keen for other people to discover the joys of recording and music production. I also love sharing my music tastes with people. I listen to so much but I especially like Dub, Reggae, Jazz, Funk, Hiphop, Jungle, Triphop and IDM
What I Can Share with Hosts
A chance to do some sound recording with me or if you play an instrument and have got something you want me to record and mix for you I will gladly do so. If you catch me on a day off I will cook for you, but my tastes aren't very English and I don't eat meat! Also in true British style i like to get drunk and have a jig
