About Me

I'm 25 years old and live in Leipzig, Germany.

At the moment, I study music and education for disabled children.

Besides i try to freelance with music.
So i play tours with my bands and give lessons for guitar, bass, drums and piano.

You have to know: Most of my hole time i do music, espacially jazz, soul, funk, balkan, hip hop.

I play with a 9 person balkan band (Batiar Gang), with a ukrainian folklore/swamp blues duo, a drum and bass live band and different jazz based bands (bossa, soul-jazz).

My instruments, i play, are guitar, piano, drums, bass, singing/rapping, saxophone.

On sunny days i also love to swim in the Donau north of Vienna. (my girlfriend lives there), go playing soccer with friends and of course: traveling.

When i travel with friends i am this nerdy guy who is fascinated by maps, architecture, city structures, history and politics. Sorry, i am the wrong person for only making photos for insta.

Last but not least Friends would say I'm a positive person with an open heart. :)

Please ask if you want to get to know me!
You know, it's hard to describe yourself in this less sentences.

Have a good day! Love to get to know you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When i'm at a foreign place i love to participate.
Hotel isn't that good for it, right?
