Hey there! My name is Helene, I‘m from Rostock in northern Germany. I graduated from High School last year and I‘ve since been travelling around the world for the past year. I’m currently road tripping in a little Subaru Outback, doing a lap around Australia with my boyfriend Brandon.
I’m passionate about arts, music, sports and love spending my time exploring the world and connecting with new people along the way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Rio de Janeiro I spent a month living at the Copacabana while volunteering in a Hostel. I got to truly live for a while in such a beautiful and diverse city, it made me fall in love with volunteering while travelling. Afterwards I did the same in Argentina, Chile, Peru and Colombia and couldn’t be more happy and grateful for those experiences.

Also, I was a shorttracker for 10+ years. I competed all around Europe.

If you’re interested in hearing about how a Model United Nations conference is, I’ve got some stories for you as well.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning languages, currently still improving my Spanish. I‘d love to share my knowledge and learn a bit more.

I love arts, architecture and design and would love to pursue a career in that field.

I‘d love to improve my cooking skills. I‘m a vegetarian and would love to learn your favourite recipe :)
