About Me
Currently I host a kids TV show for children in elementary school.
It's super fun and I get to learn tons of new things every day. I love it. :)

Right now I'm planning my trip to Tel Aviv!
I'm going on Monday, the 22nd! I'm super excited! :)
I studied media at the university of Bayreuth.
Most of the time I kept myself busy with shooting short movies, photography, acting in theatre plays from friends and being a host in our local college radio.
After school I went to Peru where I spent half a year volunteering.
I worked at a school for disabled children, timewise in a café which gave all it´s money to local children projects and finally volunteered in a clinic for drugadicts and alcoholics.
It was a very crazy time full of amazing experiences and I made countless new friends from all over the world.
Afer that I was doing a Roadtrip up the Westcoast from Vegas to Vancouver!
In Vancouver I stayed with different couchsurfers for a whole month and met really special people. Michael for example who even came visiting me back in Germany! :)
I love analog photography!

I love listening to new music! Therefore explore Spotify and listen to my favourite radio stations (FluxFM, Triple J, ByteFM, EgoFM...), watch music videos on Vimeo and last but not least exchange my taste of music with other people!
I could spend days in used record stores!
I love to talk about bands and things going on in the music buisness.
That's one of these occupations I could forget time and just talk for hours! :)
I guess I am an open-minded guy who is interested in everything new.
I love talking about life and love and how it's importance differentiates in every part of the world.
I love good conversations where you go to bed afterwards and really think: "Wow, that blew my mind! That might even change my way of living forever!"
That's my main reason of travelling.
PHILOSOPHY
Exchanging new mindsets with people from all over the world to develope your own one.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
If you couchsurf you get the best of travelling:
-You meet amazing people!
-Couchsurfers are just the most interesting people you can meet. They have free minds and they are all so individual. I never met a boring couchsurfer in my life. :)
With couchsurfers you naturally get the most interesting conversations about life, traveling and all that happy stuff.
-You can avoid the touristy parts of a country and check out what the locals do.
-You really see what's going on in a country.

Teach, Learn, Share
I can help you with your German of course but I can also help you with your Spanish a little.
I spent 6 months in Cusco, Peru, volunteering, so I speak fluent now and my Spanish is pretty good. Since then it got a really rusty though so I really need to practice!
If you have a DSLR and don't know how to use it I would love to give you a hand and teach you the basics!
Photography is one of my favorite hobbies. :)
I can teach you how to juggle with 3 balls.
