Hi there!
My name is Claudia. I am 26 years old and was born and raised in Germany. I used to live with my mother's family in the Philippines when I was a kid and am looking very much forward to the next chance visiting them again.
This spring I moved to a small village next to Trier, where I live in the guesthouse of a cute little winery. I'm hoping that this quiet, idyllic environment will help me focus on my last semester of studies at the University of Trier and writing the 6-months Magister Artium thesis in sociology.
Growing and collecting valuable Phalaenopsis orchids is my biggest hobby. I love travelling and really enjoy visiting new places and watching foreign things from the perspective of "Simmel's stranger" ;) I have always been a very curious person who loves to learn and try new things and meet interesting people!
