ABOUT ME

I was born in the deep German forests, where no civilisation is near (almost ;)). Having lived there 19 years I decided to go out and see the world - my first destination was Samara, Russia, where I lived for the time of one year. I made many interesting experiences and fell in love with the city and the incredible giant country, of which I, unfortunately, didn't see that much yet. After studying linguistics in Frankfurt i decided to move to the smaller city of Gießen, where i am studying slavic languages and becoming a german teacher for foreigners now - and there is still so much to see for me in this world...

It's quite hard for me to describe myself, but I think I'm open-minded, maybe a rather shy in the beginning, I love to be spontaneous, to discover new things, just to sit in the park with friends drinking beer, to see new countries and cultures, new languages, biking in the nature and so much more...
