Bilvox "Der Funken"

a new day is here, the world is singing the sound in my ear

About Me

I'm a drifter turned daredevil, came of age in the bohemian romantic expressionist days of the weimar republic. I'm an eclectic guy, with varied and wide interests and tastes. an expatriate - dreamer – hoper – singer – songwriter – lover - laugher…

I like: A guitar in my hand, singing & playing music for people. Good friends. Museum strolling. Being lost in Travel, Music, and interesting/random Conversations.

Watching the sunrise over the Mediterranean. Meeting new people. Exploring the city with my trusty moleskine in hand.

quotes: "dream in the world you want to live in, live in the world of your dreams, dream out loud"
life is about motion, to push things forward I'm just trying to throw my arms around the world and sing in its ear.
