About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to convince Germans that peanut butter really is a healthy snack.

ABOUT ME

Knitting in a cafe with a latte and German vocabulary then going to a club and dancing spells good times to me.

I like staying in a country for more than a month, but I also want to see every country as soon as possible. This has been a problem for me.

PHILOSOPHY

Love not fear.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't know what qualifies as amazing, but I've definitely had some moments where I think...how did I get here? Some of the recent moments include...

Being in a park in Budapest with a French girl I had met in Berlin being scolded by a 9 year old girl for pronouncing words wrong, she spoke almost no English and had made it her mission to teach me Hungarian.

Being in a topless bar in Prague with four Slovaks reading a book in German because my friends only wanted to speak in Slovakian.

Coming in second place in a Hitchhiking competition in Poland was also pretty cool.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can offer intermediate German and healthy, budget friendly cooking!
