About Me

CURRENT MISSION

visit every country of the world!

ABOUT ME

I love travelling and meeting new people; I'm trying to be open to anything new! What I love most about travelling: tasting foreign food - especially desserts...

I'm half German, half Thai, but carry Australian citizenship as I was born there. I've been living in Germany most of my life. I studies Sustainability Management and I am always up for a discussion on sustainable lifestyles. Challenge me!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is what happens, while you're busy making other plans. - John Lennon

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Did lots of crazy things in New Zealand:
Bungeejumping out of a cable car was pretty wicked!
Zorbing: Rolling down a hill in a massive rubber ball,
White water rafting a grade 5 river!,
Skydiving out of a plane,
Ice climbing on a glacier,
Black water rafting in a cave full of glow worms,
horseriding on the beach of the NZ east cape and watching the sunrise as one of the first people in the world!
Australia: Uluru is one of the most beautiful and impressive places in the world - I take great interest in the Aboriginal Culture.
Bali: went to swim in the sea with the local Balinese at 5am to clean my soul - on this particular day of the year the beach is crowded with Balinese and the beach is covered in beautiful offerings, flowers, incense sticks etc - as a gift to the gods - amazing!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to experience other cultures and learn to appreciate other people's values - besides that, I hope that one day I'll be able to speak all my languages fluently!
