CURRENT MISSION

Traveling the world andlearn new languages

ABOUT ME

As a High School exchange student, I spent one year in Canada and I learned how extremely interesting and valuable it is to step outside one's comfort zone and discover new places. After finishing school in 2006, I was fascinated by the idea of volunteering in Peru and getting to know a new culture. I had a great time in South America while traveling through Peru, Colombia, and Bolivia.
I finished my studies, International Relations and Development Studies, in the Netherlands in July 2013 and my Masters in Development Economics from London in 2017. During the last 3 years I worked in the international development field in Washington D.C. I moved back to Germany in March 2020.

I love to meet people, read, learn and speak languages, travel, and do a lot of sports.
