About me


Who is this?

Well, I am Lisa the girl from next door who is now out there in the big wide world. I studied international relations in Groningen (the Netherlands) but originally I am German. After High School I moved out of my parents house in 2009 and since then have been living in the Netherlands, Spain, South-Korea and the Dominican Republic. I do not know how long this crazy lifestyle will continue, but as long as I live I will hold on to my passion for travel, languages and adventure. Who knows, maybe I will end up in Ushuaia as a lonesome fisherwoman someday. Well, one step after another. I do not have a grand plan but small ones. Like doing my Master in Asian and European studies, learning how to speak Japanese & Korean, become a proficient Salsa dancer or earning enough money to afford an apartment in a big city with a roof-deck.

What is the purpose of this blog?

Fun. Experimentation. Sharing issues and adventures. For starters, exploring this wicked medium known as the WorldWideWeb.  The main themes and topics of my articles will concern issues on my travels as well as political topics and general stuff that pops up in my mind. Initially, I want to gather some experience and feedback in writing. When my Internship semester is over and I am back to be a serious student in September 2013, you can expect more serious topics with issues concerning the EU and Asia or my new life in Leiden. I used to write diary a little but I believe that with a good  blog I can reach people, which is just fascinating.

Why should people listen to your opinion?

Why shouldn't you ^^?
An Australian journalist once said to me: "If you want to be a columnist, journalist or successful blogger, you have to be really good at convincing other people to think you are even worth listening to". Seems true. However, since this is the internet and I just want to have some fun you are entitled to your own opinion.
I do appreciate every comment and criticism you want to put on this site. I promise that  I will cherish each and every one of them. However, please do stick to common and human rules of courtesy when posting comments. I am really scared of shitstorms. If I offend with my writing I can assure that I did not do so knowingly and I am happy to correct mistakes anytime.
