About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Having a break from my life in Germany!

ABOUT ME

I have been studying Business (with a Human Resources concentration) for 8 semesters in a lovely city called Würzburg in Bavaria. Last August I left Germany for almost 9 months to study at the VIU on Vancouver Island (fall term) and at the Corvinus University in Budapest (spring term). :))
Because after studying for 4 years and being shocked that it's almost over I was asking myself if I did everything I wanted to experience as a student. And the answer was "no" so I decided to take break from my studies in Germany and look for some adventures in 2-3 foreign countries!

I'm pretty much excited about living in Canada/Ungary for a couple months and traveling along the west coast of the U.S. and I want to enjoy that time as much as I can. Means: meeting a lot of new people and having an unforgetable time... ^^

I consider myself as a very friendly and easy to hang out and have fun with person and I'm super curious.

But I'm also at least in some things very German.. (no I hope now you are not thinking of weird humor and extensive beer drinking skills lol) it means I'm very reliable, always on time and I have no problem with saying directly and honestly what I think and feel about something/someone. Which is in most of the cases helpful but as I experienced not always. hint -> cultural sensitivity.. BUT I try my best to adapt to different persons and situtations!

Oh and I make a lot of mistakes but I'm a pretty good learner and make them only once!

PHILOSOPHY

Not only the title of an awesome movie: "Same same but different!"
