About Me

In 2017 I had the brilliant idea to quit my job and started a trip all over the world. After almost two years traveling I came back home (Bamberg/Germany).
In August 2019 I found a lovely city where I wanna live: Vienna😍
In that wonderful city, I found the love of my life. A guy from Mauritius. He's the reason I believe in love.

Of course, I miss traveling a lot. Thats why: please people contact me for hangouts. I don't care where do you come from or where you are going to...
I want to hear your stories! I am suffering from an extreme case of wanderlust... my biggest passion is to travel around and get to know other people, cultures and places.

Let your heart be your compass.

I'm a super curious girl who loves to travel, meeting new people, discovering day by day a bit more of the world. Hope you can be part of my trips and stories 🌎😊

Current Mission:
Don’t worry, be happy :-)

""Use your smile to change the world 🗺... Don't let the world change your smile""

Interests

Travel is one of my biggest passions. There's so much out there of the world to experience - different cultures, breathtaking landscapes, wildlife and people from all walks of life.

I enjoy both exploring great cities and lovely nature. I also travel for seeing "exotic" animals, which we do not have in Europe 🐢🐘🐒🐨 one of my favorite hobbies is diving. Seeing turtles (my favorite animal) in the Philippines, Australia, Cuba and Mexico has fulfilled a big dream.

Moreover, I am a foodie but I am vegetarian 🌱 so it comes as no surprise that traveling as a vegetarian can be very challenging in some countries!

I love to see how other cultures eat and dance! Food and music is the best way to interact with people if you can't speak each other's language, and getting involved is the best way to show your appreciation.

My last point: I absolutely love watching sunrises and sunsets because the colors the sun creates against the sky can be truly amazing. It also give us a better sense of gratitude for the earth. Every single one is different. That, to me, is pretty incredible.
Sunrise and sunset spots I will never forget: Bagan/Myanmar, Angkor Wat/Cambodia, Blue Mountains and Uluru/Australia, Ouro Preto/Brazil,...
