Description

Hello everyone!
My name is Kristina and I'm a 21-year-old student from Germany, near Frankfurt. I started studying American, British, and Canadian Studies in 2020 immediately after finishing high school but always dreamed of travelling for some time to gain new experiences, broaden my horizon, meet new people and simply get out of the little town I grew up in. However, because of Covid it wasn't possible for me to take a gap year after school, but at the moment I'm sort of inbetween jobs and thought it might be my time to escape into the big, wide world.

I grew up with lots of animals around me and plan on starting training as a vet tech next year, which is why I'd like to work with and around them during my travels. Additionally, I enjoy horseback riding and being in nature, either to simply calm down or to spend time going on walks, going on bicycle tours and spending time with my friends. Music is also a constant part of my life, as I'm a big Harry Styles and Taylor Swift fan ;) I love to sing, and although it may not be the best, you can almost always count on me singing along to the songs!

The main motivation for my gap year is to grow as a person, live through new experiences and make lots of memories that I can think back to for the rest of my life.
