Overview
About Me
Pronouns: he/they
I'm an opera singer and activist. I'm very passionate about music and sharing my art. I would prefer queer, trans, or allied hosts, to make sure that I'm in a safe space. :) I speak German quite well, so if you are a German native speaker, I'd much rather speak German. ^_^
During Covid I also did a coding bootcamp and am a nearly full-time frontend web developer and will happily debug your website if I'm staying with you.

Ich bin Opernsänger und Aktivist. Ich habe Leidenschaft für Musik und Kunst zu teilen. Ich preferiere queer, trans, oder ein Ally als Gastgeber haben, zu machst sicher dass ich ein Safe-Space haben. :) Ich spreche Deutsch ziemlich gut, also wenn du ein Deutsch Muttersprachler bin, würde ich lieber auf Deutsch sprechen. ^_^
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm a professional musician who needs to travel a lot for auditions and gigs. While I'm traveling I'd like to make friends in different cities, enjoy my stay, and get a fresh perspective. Besides saving money, I get to connect with people and reject capitalist bullshit.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love video games, but usually not what you'd expect. I love indie games, things that are a little gentle with great narratives.
Favorite games:
- Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
- Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
- Samorost
- Undertale
- Analogue: A Hate Story
- Mutazione
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Existing is a pretty great experience, I think, and a great accomplishment.
Besides that, I've also been written about in The New York times about my activism and work in classical music as a trans person, and have been featured in The Independent UK and Deutsche Welle.
Teach, Learn, Share
Ich kann ziemlich gut Deutsch sprechen, und würde gern gute Gespräche auf Deutsch mit ein Gastgeben teilen. ^_^
Happy to share some tips about singing, take tips on guitar, give tips about websites, etc.
