About Me

I enjoy art, cinema, literature, history, religion and philosophy. I make documentaries and also write article about things that interest me, everything from music to politics. Right now I'm promoting my documentary film about pagans in England.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to travel a lot!

I met and stayed with some really cool people in Venezuela through couch surfing and think it's such a cool way to meet people abroad.
