Let me tell you a little about me. My name is Sarah Schneider. I grew up as a third-culture kid, living many years with my family in West Africa.
After our family moved back stateside for good,
I attended Toccoa Falls College in Georgia,
graduating with a BA
in Communications.
After
college, I worked as an administrative assistant
for an international organization called
Operation Mobilization.
Although I enjoyed working with OM, after a few years I decided to follow a longtime dream I’d had to move to France and perfect the French I’d started learning in high school and college.
During my first year in France, I worked at an international school located close to central Paris.
While there, I discovered a passion for languages and decided I liked living in Europe. I spent another year working as an Au Pair with a German family in Strasbourg, France.
The
next step seemed to be to move to Germany, which
is where I am now. I am slowly learning German,
but it’s a bit challenging, seeing as how I live
and work in the largest American community
outside of America.
As a civilian on a U.S. Air Force Base, I’m discovering a bit of military culture, something I never experienced before.
I’m not sure how long I’ll be in Europe, but while I am here, I’m trying to take advantage of the time to visit close-by countries, experience other languages and try new things.
