My name is Franziska and I was born and raised in southern Germany. I´m a nomad at heart and a very passionate traveler. To me, language is key in order to immerse yourself in different cultures and really get to know the people you´re meeting - and that´s why I reckon italki is a fantastic platform for exchange. I´m on the road a lot and I try to travel as much as I can. In the last 15 years I´ve been living in Austria, Australia, Thailand, Spain and Germany. My passions, besides traveling, are cooking, sports (climbing, snowboarding, riding motorbikes and yoga), reading and hanging out with friends.
