About Me

I grew up partly in Mali, Westafrica and in Bremen, Germany. I produce a lot of music, sometimes more electronic sometines hiphop and play a few instruments :) I started couchsurfing and hosting many people on my journey in Rwanda chilling with the local reggae community and organizing small events and concerts. Now I am based in Berlin, working with kids to teach them music and playing concerts whenever I can. I always need a strong community and good comrades around me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy festivals especially those with lots of good music. Festivals create a situation where everybody just stops caring about who he is and who others are and most experiences I had where very funny. My utopia is the thought of humanity as a huge festival. I think couchsurfing is a start on the way to this utopia. I've hosted many people during my time in East-Africa and never had a bad experience.

Interests

I play saxophone, guitar, drums and piano. I also have a little home studio where I record songs. I enjoy cooking and travelling. Whenever there are trees I love climbing. The best days are days spend with music by the seaside. I love discussing politics, dancing and I like to join demonstrations for the right causes.

Music, Movies, and Books

As for music: HipHop of all kinds and variations, good old rocknroll, jazz, funk and some indie rock.

Fight Club should be on every Movie list. I love Johnny Depp, though I try to stop watching US movies because most are overproduced and pretty dull.

My all time favourite book is "Little Brother" by Cory Doctorow. Pretty good one about double standards and resistance against corrupt states.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Guess this is where you present yourself in the most coolest way possible. I went to a national park on the back of a pick-up packed with two matresses. That's very cool I think.

Teach, Learn, Share

"Watch out where the huskies go, and don't you eat the yellow snow !"

What I Can Share with Hosts

Discussions about politics, history and the world. Nice guitar sessions in the living room and freestyle rap cyphers.

We might also have a bed and a couch to sleep on.
