Swimming with humpback whales in Tonga!! That was a huuuge bucket list item for me but I never though I’d actually get to go to Tonga since flights are really expensive. So I sailed there and did it! Standing on the edge of an active volcano in Vanuatu. Changed my view on life and how small we are and how powerful natures can be! Somehow I ended up on a sailboat with no sailing experience whatsoever. What was intended to be 6 weeks somehow turned into 6 months on board and I LOVED every second of it! How did I not know about this way of traveling before?? I did an internship for a few months in China without speaking a word of Chinese (and honestly without knowing what the company that hired me even does)… Getting to know a new county, a new culture, new people… new everything!

One advice? Go out there, explore and just do it! Don’t think about it too much, it’ll be great!

I can cook awesome, homemade German meals… Be prepared for Käsespätzle, Schupfnudeln and Maultaschen to change your life!
