Hi, my name is Mellisha Lambert and I'm from Lincoln, Nebraska. I didn't grow up in Lincoln, though. My family moved around a lot, so I got to experience a lot of different environments, people and cultures. As a result, I've always wanted to understand how culture affects people and how people are shaped by their environments. That's exactly why I wanted to study abroad.
I hope you will join me on this journey so I can show you why different people, cultures and places can be so fascinating. As I experience new things in Germany, I will share them with you, too--we'll travel together!
