ABOUT

Hi! I'm Mandy. I am a budget analyst, climber, DIY addict and world traveler who was born in Germany and then moved to North Carolina, Hawaii, Georgia, Belgium, Michigan, and Kentucky as a child. After getting an MPA and working as an environmental technician (catching bats and snakes), my husband Frank and I got the travel bug and decided to find a job in Europe. So, here we are, a few moves later living in Bavaria Germany with our two awesome kiddos Cooper and Lillian.
