Adventures Of A Riot Grrrl

Hey Sweethearts,

I am kind of cheating today and have swapped today's and tomorrows topic around. Blog every may today is all bout hidden talents. For me the only thing I could think of is working on art and film. I have shared some of my films on here a long time ago but here is a quick refres…

As a film maker I am always looking for new exciting challenges to be a part of to push me into trying different filming styles. I am also a big believer in getting more people involved with making films. So many people always say to me that they would love to make something at least once. My answe…

So as I am slowly getting back into writing and film making I have been sharing a few of  my old films to try and spark me into getting going again. I already shared 8 bit ninjas music video. Today I wanted to share one of the films I am most proud of.

It is no secret that I am a feminist and a str…

So we are back now and what a ride. Sorry about the wifi it made it really difficult to keep up to date. Although again it just shows you how much we take for granted in the UK. Super fast WIFI seems to be everywhere these days. So to find a 4 star hotel struggling to keep their WIFI going and havi…

When I first looked at the programme for today I rolled my eyes. More fairy chimney and another cave hotel. Isn't it kid of scary how quickly you can start to take things for granted? Like when I get home I will long to drink tea looking at beautiful landscapes when all I see from my window is …

Finally after lots of tea drama managed to have a cup of tea yay. Let me take you back a few days. We went and bought a kettle so we could make sure that everyone could have tea or at least a hot water bottle. Then we had the genius idea to go and buy some milk. So we bought what looked like milk a…

Time just flies by so fast I can't believe it is already Friday. Had the most amazing sleep last night even though I actually only got to sleep an extra half hour but mmmmm. I had negotiated a later start for the team as they had a super long day yesterday. One of the teams didn't get back …

Sleepy eyed I am waiting for the team to come back from visiting Turkish Families. They all chipped together to buy their hosts for the night some lovely cake. I thought this was a really sweet gesture from the team which just shows we really do have a lovely group of young people on this trip. I s…

WOAH what a day! Today the team were taken on a tour of Cappodocia to take a look at the different areas we would be filming. I suggested the team take minimal equipment with them enjoy the area, make plans for filming and just have a general recce.

First stop was to take a breath taking look at pi…

Recently I scored an awesome promotion at work (Ulfah Arts) and have had the opportunity to become part of some really inspiring projects.One of the projects is the Leonardo Project. Ulfah and YTV have been part this international skill building exchange for some time hosting young people from Germ…
