Fernweh (n) – "Farsickness" or an ache for the distance.

Motivated by an urge to learn more about people, languages and cultures, I find that I never spend too long in any one place. But no matter how many countries I inhabit, I think I'll always call Oregon my home. I can never come back if I don't go, right?

I'm currently working on a Masters degree in teaching English as a foreign language. In the meantime I spend the Summers in Europe, teaching English to kids at Summer camps. It's really just an excuse for me to go to Summer camp, I've never really outgrown it...

I love interacting with people from all over the world, thereby making the strange familiar and the familiar strange.

兴趣

When not studying grammar I enjoy hiking, petting cats, arranging a cappella music, taking photos, playing the piano, painting with watercolors or just sharing a cup of tea and some nice conversation with friends.

I also make music!

音乐、电影和书籍

I have this habit of watching the same TV series over and over again. At the moment I've watched the entire US version of The Office about 6 times, Parks and Recreation 3 times, Bob's Burgers twice, and I'm currently working my way through the second round of Twin Peaks. Don't get me wrong though, I still somehow find time to watch new things as well.
