About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn languages, meet people, be happy

ABOUT ME

Hi!! I'm a 23 year old British Kiwi, studying in Australia and currently living in berlin and loving it! I study languages - German, French and Spanish, love meeting people and new places. Would like to work as a freelance translator when I finally finish uni. I'm in Berlin to improve my German - and because it's the best city in the world!

PHILOSOPHY

Um, I don't really have one, sounds all a bit wanky to me. But I guess just being happy is important and living in the now, changing anything that doesn't make you smile.
