About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring the world!

ABOUT ME

Hmm, I´m not very good in self descriptions, but I´ll try my best. So I´m 23 and have worked and lived in a Camphill Village (with people with special needs) in Upstate New York a couple years ago. I am in my third year studying business administration at the University of Mannheim, Germany.
I´m a sports addict, like to play and watch all kinds of different types of sport. Besides that I like travelling, nature, meeting new people and just enjoy life. Since I´m from Germany, I´d never turn down a beer ;) Partying rocks!
I also enjoy reading good books or watching good movies, especially movies which are based on true stories and make me think.
Keeping track of what´s going on in the world is also very important for me.
