ABOUT ME

I'm a 23 year-old American working as an au pair in Germany. I went to university in London for a semester abroad in 2010 and fell in love with traveling and meeting different people with different cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

I like to have fun and make the most of life by traveling and meeting cool new people.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I'm not sure anything I've done would be amazing by most people's standards, but where I come from, it's an achievement enough to leave the state of Pennsylvania in your lifetime. So I guess I'm pretty proud of the traveling I've done. Also, seeing Bob Dylan in concert was pretty awesome.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I'm always open to learning new things as often as possible. Even just about specific people as I find human behavior and cultural differences so fascinating.
