CURRENT MISSION

to do some good deeds.

ABOUT ME

Living and traveling abroad is my foremost passion. I love to meet new people and learn about other cultures. Last time I spent a year in the US and got to know the American South in particular. I've also lived in England for six months. Right now I am back to Germany and about to graduate. I will be a teacher and hope to work at an international school somewhere on this globe. Soon I will be in Boston for an internship at the local Goethe-Institute. After my graduation I will live in New Zealand for a whole year and teach German. My friends and family already call me the globetrotter and I like it!!

PHILOSOPHY

Der kürzeste Weg zu dir selbst führt einmal um die Welt.

The shortest way to find to yourself takes one tour across the globe.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always offer as many pillows and as many blankets as you can give! As a surfer I want to feel warm and cozy. As a host I want my guests to feel comfortable...to feel like home.
