You might read on, but I'll warn you. I'm german. Now please don't read this with a terrible german accent. You're doing it right? Well ok than.
To be honest: I am just a Couchsurfer like everyone has been in some point of time in his or her life. I have goals and passions which I pursue by making it my work. And I have dreams which I see as possibilities that are made to come true. One of them is traveling in New Zealand which I will start doing from the end of november 2017. No set landmarks, no goals, no route, just going with the flow. Experiencing, learning, teaching, seeing, hearing and feeling things that will be new to me. I've been a photographer and filmmaker almost all my life but this time I won't take any big cameras with me to have more time to see with my eyes.

I'd be happy to meet you und share some stories, talk about live, coffee and everything in between with people who live almost at the opposite side of each others world.

Music, Movies, and Books

I try to watch at least 3 movies per week, so thats a difficult one. "Drive" and "Only God Forgives" were great in terms of cinematography. "Into the wild", "Tetarti 04:45", "shawshank redemption". I absolutely love "LaLaLand". "Mr.Robot" is a great show.
I enjoy all kinds of movies as long as they have some kind of story, depth or awesome cinematography.
As for Music I play Bass, Guitar and Mandolin, mostly Rock and Singer Songwriter stuff but some Jazz and classical Music, too. My favorite Bands would probably be Metallica, Bosse, Rise Against, Ed Sheeran, Blumentopf, Billy Talent, Damien Rice, passenger + the hundreds of other great musicians.

I think everyone should have read John Strelecky's books about the "Big five for live" and "The little Prince".

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Can't decide between Diving the Zenobia or making movies with 30 people in the crew for the cinema. The most amazing things are those you couldn't achieve without others.
Maybe surviving a heavy storm on a sailing boat while on the way to Denmark was one thing, too.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always happy to give someone a crash course in anything regarding digital media like photoshop, DaVinci Resolve, photography, filmmaking, playing the guitar or ukulele. If you need help in any way, somehow I'll find a way to figure it out. Therese almost nothing that can't be done with two pair of hands 🏻
