About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to explore the world as it is. I'd like to live a blend of the local and tourist style in each spot.

ABOUT ME

Angela. Just another student who took a chance on study abroad and came to Germany for a year. NOT! I'm on the search for a broad adventure. At 20 years old, there are many things I have not seen or done. While on my year abroad in Germany (Tuebingen) I would love to visit all the cities and countries I can reach. I would also love enjoying the local style of each place I visit, not just tourist spots (although those are sometimes nice too!)

I love food and am really looking forward to try the best, the worst, the weirdest...anything!Humor and good attitude are also nice.

I love films (Shawshank Redemption, Catch Me If You Can)and music (Grizzly Bear, Sondre Lerche, Sufjan Stevens) and would love to see your favorites and maybe make you a mixtape in return for a lovely stay in your home!

Books. Talk to me about books. I love reading and always looking for the next best read. However, currently working on Der Kleine Prinz as a slow climb my way towards fluency in German.

Biking. Walking. Living. Can we? I love nature and exploring the outdoors. Okay, admittedly spiders ARE NOT my thing. Doesn't stop me from walking through a forest though!

Life is for living, and if that living can include a handpicked soundtrack, all the better.

PHILOSOPHY

Imagination is the one weapon in the war against reality. - Jules de Gaultier
