Well, I personally consider myself as a young outgoing and independent women, who enjoys life and all the incredible things that come with it and, very important, I love New York. To live in one of the greatest cities in the world, is one of the most amazing experiences of my life.
I grew up in a very small town in former East Germany, in the middle of nowhere and I just left everything behind and came here, which is, now that I think about it, CRAZY. Nobody would do such a thing. But I wasn’t even planning on staying, when I first came to the United States, I only wanted to travel and explore the country. Never pictured myself still being here today, or even more unreal, attending college.
Also things were a little different before I started college. I was just living the life and did whatever I felt like doing. My work schedule also gave me the opportunity to do so and that gave me the freedom to practice all kinds of sports. My huge passion are especially surfing and wake-surfing, snowboarding, running and kickboxing. Love it, just love it. If I wouldn’t be so “german” then I would just hang on the beach all day and surf surf surf….
On my journey I met so many great people and some of them have become really good and close friends of mine, I wouldn’t have wanted to miss that for the world. Most of them are immigrants just like me and we kind of have that special connection, I guess because there are so many similarities in our background stories.
I am so happy to be able to go to school, yeah its great crack. Even though sometimes it seems hard to find the balance between school, work and life, but you just have to suck it up and move forward. In the end it will all be worth it…
