    Description

    I'm Tilman, a music producer and teacher. Our little family moved in 2022 from Berlin to Italy. I am 42 years Old Speaking German, English and actually learning Italian. Im interested in cultural and skill exchange of all type, open minded and happy to share my knowledge about music production where I have over 25 years of experience. Beside that we are running an Event agency and organising big cultural events for Kids and family's.
    Since 2024 I'm volunteering as musical director at the World-Child-Forum in Davos (Switzerland). In my free time I enjoy Mountainbiking and spending time with my family at the lake or the surrounding mountains, winter sports like snowboarding and skiing. In the summer we often do trips to the see side.
    I live with my wife Lilla (44), (Fashion designer and entrepreneur) and daughter Tilla ( 7) in an old Castle at the Lago Maggiore in Italy.


    We are creative, free thinking and freedom seeking and like to welcome like mindet people.
