  • Description

    Hi! My name is Ryan and I am from Bedfordshire in United Kingdom.

    I lived abroad for quite some time in Hungary, Vietnam and China, I was teaching English for mainly kindergarten level. I am TEFL qualified but do not wish to continue this line of work at the moment.

    Whilst away I have volunteered in Hungary, once on a farm with Hungarian grey cows and once on a chicken farm caring for the animals and helping with projects around the farm and house. I spent time with a family at their home and herb garden helping briefly, I have also spent time on a snail farm in the UK harvesting. I have stayed with family's in France whilst helping building projects in their homes move forward and learning how to cook jam.
    I have also volunteered in some language exchange projects and teaching English in summer camps.

    The projects I have helped with included : Fruit picking, Farming and Animal Care, Building works, Renovations, Painting and Decorating, Teaching and Planning and other various tasks in and around the home.

    I have also had a lot of experience in both front of house and back of house jobs and in customer service roles.

    I have been producing music for several years and publishing with a company in Italy called Flipper Music under the name of Night Wolf, I am currently working on my 10th album. My music has been placed in projects including the film trailer for "Essex Boys Retribution", Netflix's "El Club", and various television networks and shows such as Hollyoaks, Channel 4, Sky Atlantic, NFL Football, MLB, UK Environment Agency, Canal+, Grip, France 5, NHK, Net5, TF1 Series Film, XEE, I Sydafrika Går Det Godt, TVN, Echappées belles, Hartz und Herzlich, RTL2, DR2, Kooth, Anonymous, TV Puls/Puls 2, Joe Network, Fox Network, Au nom de la vérité, In The Blood, Klimaets NYE Superstjerne, DRP2, Vodafone TV, BBT, RTE One, and the 2018 European Athletics Championships.

    I am working towards creating a sound effect and foley company, recording and editing a range of different noises and ambiences to package and sell. I am still working towards getting the last bits of kit I need to start properly. I am still learning and wanting to progress as soon as I can to develop my idea for a business called No Paw Audio.

    I am looking to hopefully help others in need and be able to exchange the help for knowledge and learning new skills. I feel I need a break from "normal" life and would like to venture out to help on new projects and enjoy a new location and meet new and interesting people whilst gathering my thoughts for my next steps towards building my sound effect and foley company and reinventing my music brand on social media. I have had experience working with my father for a long time in building work and am good with a paintbrush! I have experience with looking after animals.

    I have a 6 year old Springador female dog called Inka who I would like to bring with me as it is just me and her living together and love the thought of her coming on a new adventure with me. She is well behaved and a very friendly happy dog (Photo in my profile) . I do also drive but only automatic, I have previously drove tractors and quad bikes on placements.

    I look forward to hopefully meeting new people and learning new things, being part of special projects and gaining inspiration to continue to work hard from others and their dreams.

    I truly hope to make some great memories and see as much of the world as I can (with little Inka). I would like to capture sound from around the world and continue my path into my art.
