CURRENT MISSION

"seeing the wonders of the Galaxy for less than 30 Altarian dollars per day"

ABOUT ME

I'm passionate about traveling, writing and acting. It's so great to meet new people and experience new unexpected situations. In this sense I feel a little bit like a 'story-collector'. Realizing creative projects and traveling are quite similar to me: In both cases you are climbing up mountains, which changes you and gives you a taste of the most important story: life.

PHILOSOPHY

- "The journey is the reward."
- "The earth without art is just eh."

Life can be so fascinating, absurd and bright - just be open-minded.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- playing self-written audio dramas live on stage with my friends. It's an amazing way to play theater - only via voices, music, foley art, sounds and accoustic atmosphere
- making short films (after two weeks of filming in 2015 I felt almost dead. Nevertheless it was one of the most exciting experiences I have ever done.)
- hitchiking from Ireland back home to Germany
- realizing an independent student theater project (production of my self-written comedy "Characting")
- walking the West Highland Way with my brother and a friend :)
- realizing journalistic short films and articles about themes like cycle ball, morticians, weed etc.
- working one year at the Institute of Animation at Filmakademie Baden Württemberg
- cycling around the Lake of Constance
- trying one lesson 'Irish Dance' :P :)
- sliding on a horseback over ice
