ESC Intern
GEN Staff
I was born in Berlin and then living in Halle, Germany where I study social- and cultural anthropology together with education sciences. Currently I am lucky to be living in the Findhorn Community in Scotland where I am doing a one year long internship with GEN as part of the European Solidarity Corps. Before studying I've been working and living in different communities around the world gaining a deeper understanding of alternative ways of living which inspired me in wanting to support this movement.
