I'm an early bird.

Ok, if you're not completely deterred now, you can start reading my profile ;)

I’m a self-employed filmmaking person, doing colors, producing and directing. From musicvideos, to documentaries, commercials and fiction. My passion is to realize NGO projects, like for Doctors Without Borders. We also filmed porpoises and cranes for the german nature conservation organisation.

When I was younger, I travelled through New Zealand. It was a super cool time and I had the chance to meet many interesting people and also do some awesome stuff (surfing, milking cows, joining uni and school, fishing, hiking, endless roadtrips… or just sitting around a warm fire and talking about life ^^).

I like happy, friendly, crazy, polite… people and would consider myself as one of them, but I think that’s characteristic for most of the Couchsurfing-Crowd.

One more thing: PLEASE just normal requests and read the profil of the people you wanna stay with at their house - I won't answer anymore if sb can't do these easy things. Thanks ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I was younger, (15 and 17) I stayed at family houses in France and in England for 1 week and really enjoyed the heartwarming atmosphere. It's crazy how you can feel home everywhere! We as a family also hosted 3 girls from Argentinia, America and New Zealand. They there all different and charming in their own ways.
Later I couchsurfed myself and met all kinds of awesome people, learned interesting aspects about life and shared good laughs and adventures.
To keep it short and simple: I love the idea behind Couchsurfing and are excited to get to know the people and their cities on a way more personal way, than in boring hotels.

Music, Movies, and Books

MOVIES: …should definitely take more time watching them. One of my favorites is "Catch me if you can" with Leonardo di Caprio. Also admire Spike Jonze. Other good films: Close, Marriage Story, Tampopo...
SPOTS: Cleverly made, short commercials always catch me. I could rewatch them hundred times, considering light, message, story, camera movement and angles, mood, colors...
MUSIC: On top of my playlist: Kytes, One Republic, Kraftklub, Hardwell, Ludovica Einaudi
For dancing I like electronic music. In summer, I enjoy going on Festivals with friends. In general I'm open for nearly all kind of music.
BOOKS: Good books are the best thing in holidays. In everyday life, time is often to barely. Currently I like Sally Rooney. Other ones I enjoyed: A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway, The Pathology of Normalcy by Erich Fromm, Books from Astrid Lindgren...
PODCASTS: In Bus or when I’m running, I sometimes listen to motivating/interesting podcasts.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Most important first: I always enjoy cooking together.
If you like, I can teach you how to juggle.
Friends say that I'm a motivating person, so if you wish I'm always ready for a little morning run or a workout (surely with a delicious breakfast included, after work is done :D ).
If you have some footage of your last adventure, I could help you with the editing.
