About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Hi!
I am a researcher in education. Besides that I love jazz and other music and I love travelling and get to know new cultures and interesting people. I am very interested in social sciences and humanities as well as all kinds of arts and music, and I am a person you can have a lot of fun with if you are easy-going.
I work throughout the day so I cannot hang out with you all the time when you visit me. But I will give you good advice to explore the city and we can spend the evenings together - and if you like jazz I know good places to go to.
I am living with my husband and my two sons (almost 3 and 6), and I would say that we are a fairly relaxed nice family.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once did an internship at a Maori educational organisation in Whakatane, N.Z., which was an amazing experience and taught me a lot.

Steering a three masts sailing ship at night on the stormy atlantic ocean; climbing up the masts to pack the sails while they move for several meters.

Backpacking in general is pretty amazing - going with the flow, being super spontanious, getting to know people and sharing one's lifepath with them for a while...
