About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See as much as possible from the US

ABOUT ME

I graduated from highschool in 2011 and decided that I need a break before I stard studying .
Coming to America as an Au Pair was probably the best decisions I've ever made . Being so far away from home was hard but it made me stronger and more independent .
I live with a family on Long Island/New York and watch their two kids (Wyeth 2 years , Kenson 7 months). I love them to death and it's going to be awful to leave them when I'm going back to Austria...
I am easy-going , flexible , open minded and humorous . I love to meet new people and to hang out with my friends . I'm down to earth and like to explore new things and go on adventures !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've sailed a lot on my dads sailboat . It's amazing feeling the water on your skin , only hearing the wind ...
I also was holding a baby lion when I was 8 . Sooo cute :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm from Austria so of course I'd love to share our culture with you . And maybe we can figure out some austrian and american prejudices and see if they are true or not :D e.g. In Austria we think that all americans are fat . Well after living in america for nine months I came to the conclution that you'd probably starve without fastfood and a microwave but defenitely not everybody if fat :D in fact way less people than I expected ! haha
