Hi guys! It’s been a long time, I know. Sure you’ll understand. I really needed this break from the Internet, Social Media and electronic devises during Christmas and my stay in Europe. But here I am back again, having great news to tell: On December 20th, I successfully defended my Master Thesis, and am now […]
Merry Christmas!
Dear friends! After stressful finals weeks at ISU, I finally got to enjoy some Christmas spirit during a couple of days in Chicago. Huge Christmas trees, ice skating arenas, and even a German Christkindl Market (including Glühwein and strawberries in chocolate!) made my anticipation grow and made me count the hours until my flight would […]
The City of Angels

4 Spaniards and a Crazy Girl
#route 66 #part1 Never in my life was I on a road trip. Never in my life have I dreamed about crossing almost the entire United States of America. Never in my life did I travel so spontaneously and free, that in the morning I sometimes didn’t know where I would spend the night. It […]
A Creative Performance

This week was my host mom’s birthday, and so the #bestgermancrewever and I decided to make one of her wishes come true.

American Thanksgiving
