I'm a music student from Stuttgart, Germany. I study for being a teacher, my instruments are the trumpet, piano and vocals. I play both classical and jazz. I took also some lectures in physics.

Until now, I did no couchsurfing, so I'm looking forward to the first opportunity of being hosted somewhere and meeting local people, to have a nice chat, share thoughts, music or our favourite food!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested in meeting local people, get to know where there are nice spots in the city, learn some words of the language - make the experience, how life goes on in this part of the world.

Interests

In a german lesson at school we read "The Dark Side of the Moon" by Martin Suter (about a guy consuming magic mushrooms) and after listening to the Album of the same name by Pink Floyd, I had a new favourite band and author.
I really like books, be it new or old - literature as we read at school (Georg Büchner, Franz Kafka, Max Frisch, Siegfried Lenz, R.M. Rilke...), fantasy (JRR Tolkien, GRR Martin), works of Michael Ende (Mirror in the Mirror, Momo), or Robert Seethaler (Der Trafikant).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Berlin: First day in the city, I met a guy playing on the guitar, I took my trumpet mouthpiece and played with him - really fun! Then going through Berlin with someone who listened to us playing, playing at jam sessions for the first time.
