I have always loved music, played the violin and sung (solo and in various choirs), and after an MA in Computational Linguistics and Cognitive Psychology moved into multimedia production, then sound recording in 2003. From 2012 on video has become ever more important, and in 2015 I completed my first documentary "Practice Prizes Perfection" on the Karate World Championships 2014.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a sound guy I often operate on a small budget. Did I say small? Sometimes more like zero ;-) So please help me do my thing with amazing yet often not especially affluent musicians by letting me stay on your couch. It will be much appreciated!
