Hey Folks,

I am Verena, 24 years old and from Germany (Bavaria).
Currently I am in New Zealand on a working holiday visa.
I travelled for half a year the south island in my Van "nerd'o'noah". There I worked in the vineyard, did some woofing and enjoyed beautiful landscapes. Since June I work as a live in Au Pair in Whitby (Wellington) and I will do so till end of September. Then my last travel month starts to explore the north island. :)

I love to do all sorts of action outdoor stuff and the compromise with my wallet about that is part of my life. Also I enjoy playing guitar - don't expect pro skills though!

I think I am pretty open minded and like to meet new people - especially the ones with a good sense of humour, their own point of view and a passion that drives them. And the friendly ones with no brutal killer background are highly preferable!

I guess personally I can tick the "no brutal killer box" and the rest is up to you to figure out. ;)

See ya and have a good day!

Btw: ENFP if someone cares and is also nerdy into Myers briggs ^^

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ahhh ... that's a pretty self-praising one ...

I did a bungy, if that opens the door to the cool kids club?!

Teach, Learn, Share

... that's already pretty wise itself.

One phrase I heard once that inspired me:
"Find yourself - lose yourself - and than find others"
