Hi, I'm Mela!
I'm an American that loves to travel (especially since getting my master’s degree in Germany). I enjoy meeting new people when I'm traveling and sharing new experiences.

I kept the About Me brief but if you'd like to know more just ask :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not sure of my teaching ability but if there is good music, I can dance and you can follow, haha.

Definitely open to learning about cultures and perspectives that are different to mine :).

What we can share? Ideally, stories and laughs over a good meal.
