About Me

CURRENT MISSION

After taking two years off after high school I went back to work and finished my BA in American studies and German as a foreign language. For the last two years I ended up in a beautiful small town in the middle of nowhere Virginia and tried to bring my culture and language closer to the collage kids there. After an amazing summer back home in the mountains I am currently doing my MA in German as a Foreign/Second language in Freiburg.

ABOUT ME

Hey, i am an open and friendly girl with many interests. I am very easygoing and think travelling is the best way to learn about other people and cultures and therefore makes the world more tolerant! I love to talk to people, exchange experiences and make new friends!

PHILOSOPHY

A person who walks in another's tracks leaves no footprints!
