Born and raised in Alberta, with German parents who immigrated to Canada before I was born, my brother and I grew up with two languages, two cultures and a diverse and chaotic heritage.
I travel, explore and learn about how people live, listening to stories and discovering all the ways in which we are more similar than different.
But how did this Canadian girl end up in Germany (a question I seriously get asked every week because Germans just can't understand why anyone would leave a country as great as Canada)?
Well, in short (very short):
Many moons ago, a girl fell in love with a boy, girl moved across the ocean to be with said boy. But as is often the case, boys come and go...thankfully, stories last forever.
Currently, I'm living next to the Rhine River, in the middle of Germany, writing as @ninaonthego (formerly @ninaontherhein), mixing German and English like I have been doing my entire life, while I work and play my way around Europe.
Here's to more stories, more learning, and hopefully lots more love!
