May I surf your couch?

As I prepare to engage myself in the world of CouchSurfing once again, I refer you to a great article from not too long ago which takes the words out of my mouth. This is the future of travel, and the future of social networking beyond that tweeting thing. Enjoy your surf. Sidenote: I updated my profile to say my couch was available for surfing last night, and got 5 requests with a few hours for the coming week. Forward me your CV and top references, and I'll evaluate my options. Just kidding folks, stay as long as you like, haha. Cheers, Daniel C.

Filmmaker

A week ago I ran into an interesting Glaswegian. Very creative and talented is this young artist. I did a story on him for the Evening Times, and I've posted a rough draft of it here for you. Kevin has already won a BAFTA, only a few years after being homeless, and will someday perhaps have a premier at Cannes or Toronto. He has asked me to act is his latest film 'Recycle', which films tomorrow. Not much of an actor, but I'll give it a shot. A trailer of his last film is here.
