Hi, I’m Evelyn and I live in the middle of nowhere (“nowhere” in the sense of: the nearest city you could possibly know is about 1 hour away from here). I've recently finished my studies (linguistics​) and have a little job now.

In case you decide to write me:
If you only write something like “Hi, how are you?” I’ll take a look at your profile and decide afterwards whether I write back or not. So if your profile is absolutely empty, I probably won’t answer because I simply don’t know what to write. It’s a bit sad but in these cases the country you’re coming from is also a criterion. Experience;)​

Anybody who looks for a conversation​, friendship, help with German and/or language exchange is welcome.

short explanation of my language skills:
I can read and write: German, English, Spanish (in that order;))
I can read: Dutch, French, Italian, Portuguese (no particular order)
I'm also interested in Scandinavian​ languages and Russian. Actually, I'm interested in many languages but these I got to know a little during my studies.

Please don't try to add me to your friend list if we haven't talked yet.

I like:
languages
reading (you know what people say about girls and shoes? well, books are my shoes I just can’t stop buying them)
travelling (there are still many places I wanna visit, like Scotland the country with the highest percentage of redheads, Sweden the home of Astrid Lindgren and many more)
my dog (Senta, I wanted to name her Snegurochka but it wasn’t only my choice)
music and beautiful song lyrics
films
theatre
afternoon naps
football
team handball
chocolate
drinking coffee or tea from big mugs
the sea
camping sites
snow
baking

Wouldn't it just rock and roll if liking someone meant they had to like you back? Of course that'd be a different universe and something else would probably suck.

To forgive is an act of compassion, Buffy. It's not done because people deserve it. It's done because they need it.

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.
