About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a 24-year-old girl from the very south of Germany in the Alps (the mountains ;-) ) (Bavaria), currently studying her masters in Global Business Development after a bachelor in political science - so, quite an interesting and maybe not so common combination ;)
My friends and family already got used to the fact that I am abroad whenever I can - but after having lived in Chile, Israel, Spain and travelling through South America, I slowly feel like the mountains where I grew up are calling me home.

...some more details:
I absolutely love sports, traveling and meeting new people from all around the world, hearing about their experiences and hopefully sharing some with them. I really enjoy being submerged in other cultures.
In 2010 I stayed in Chile, South America for 3 months as an exchange student. It was a fantastic experience and until now the best time of my life. When I went there I didn't know any Spanish word but when I came back to Germany I knew much more than just the language...-I learnt so many things for my life and it changed me a lot! I would not be the person I am today without this great experience.
After finishing high school I continued my way of getting to know other cultures by working abroad in Spain for a few months and backpacking South America for six months in 2014.
During my studies I was able to live 6 months in beautiful Tel Aviv, Israel. I love every one of those experiences, but returning home to my mountains for the masters feels quite good now as well.
But I am sure, the travel spirit will forever stay a part of me and my life!

Since then I am actually trying to find my place in this world and enjoy every second of my life!

PHILOSOPHY

Walker, there is no path. The path is made by walking.

Don't dream your life but live your dream!

Live life like I want to and not just follow the Mainstream, because I am the one I am going to look to every evening in the mirror!

Interests

I am a lot into sports, trying out new disciplines from time to time but always staying with athletics, streetdance, skiing, roadbiking and mountainbiking as well as starting with climbing.
Due to the fact that I am living in the mountains I grew up with skiing, hiking and all the other outdoor-mountain-sports and I absolutely love it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Luckily enough, I had a lot of amazing, happy moments.
I'll keep those to myself for now. We can tell our stories in person :)

But what needs to be said: I had the incredible chance to meet extraordinary people while going from place to place... And I am looking forward to go further!
