2010 After completing my Nurse Apprenticeship to become a general and psychiatric registered Nurse, I bought my first Van and started a 3 year Travel. I traveled across Europe selling handmade crafts such as leather and crochet work and later on creating a busking routine with my flower sticks and performing fire shows with fellow travelers. I left my Van in Gran Canaria to sail across the Atlantic with a crew of 12 fellow boat hitchhikers and the Australian Captain who owns a 22m x 15m Catamaran named "SKYE". We sailed to Carbo Verde-Brasil-French Guyana- Martinique where i left the boat and started my 1,5 year Caribbean Travel adventure. I spent most of my time in the Caribbean living with locals on the so called "Nature Island" Dominica. I learned about farming and cooking with the local produce, about herbal medicine and to craft local art such as seed jewelry straw braiding and calabash art . When a friend joined my travels in Dominica we collaborated with an elementary school, Music Artists and Dancers. Back in Europe i started to work in my Profession as a Nurse in a Neuro Rehabilitation Center and started my Education in Psychotherapy. Also i discovered the KaOs Circus Academy in Vienna and started a 2 year circus education for Adults. 2017 purchased my next van, converted it with the Help of my brother and traveled to circus conventions all over Europe. During my Circus studies i developed an act that fuses Aerial Hoop with Staff manipulation which was presented alongside my circus academy Comrades in a Production called "Flying High" and was performed in Vienna and Linz. With all my Education Goals conquered i planned to purchase a Camper van in the USA with my Partner, starting a promotional Travel for the Company we founded called "Prop Dance Culture", which aims to be a social Network, Multi vendor and Educational Platform for Movement artist. We also visited multiple “Flow fests” In the U.S and Canada. We have been sustaining ourselves with organizing "Prop Dance" Workshops across the country, connecting and collaborating with Dance Studios, Schools and Colleges to spread our Mission. I also work remote as an English - German Translator and subtitle/caption Videos, do Graphic design and write for our travel Blog.. It has been 14 Month now and our travels will end in November, therefore i will be back in Europe. My partner and I are planning to do another vanlife tour in Europe, 2021.
