SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: I am returning to my work for Chatterbug from March 2024 after having taken some time off for maternity. Even though I will be working reduced hours, I cannot wait to get back to this lovely online community of teachers and learners ! Watch this space for any last-minute schedule additions 
!
Halli-Hallo!
My name is Jenny and I am originally from Frankfurt, Germany. 
I left Germany when I was 19 to live and study in Scotland, and apart from some travelling stints around the world, I’ve always returned to my new home in “sunny” Dundee (apparently it is the sunniest city in Scotland, but I have yet to find out why 
).
My day job is lecturing German and French at a nearby university, and I also help out in the languages department at a nearby private school, but I love meeting international students through platforms like Chatterbug, as it provides a completely new community and having students from around the world is something else!
In my free time, I enjoy travelling/exploring new places (duh!), yoga, walking (my dog), eating and I love a good TV show.
My favourite quote is the cheesy “Everything happens for a reason”, because my philosophy is: Life is short. Don’t waste your time with regrets, and instead re-adjust, appreciate those learning opportunities and try something different next time!
I can’t wait to meet all of you and wish you a splendid (hopefully-sunny-if-you-are-not-in-Dundee) day! 
Welcome to Chatterbug 
I like your quote! You are right life is short and things happens as well for a reason. One understands better why years later but time will always give the reasons.
, herzlich willkommen bei Chatterbug! I also share a love of eating 
(Do you have a favourite cuisine?) and interacting with students from around the world.
! I have no preferences but I find that understanding the origin and history of dishes makes them even more delicious - I am a sucker for a good food documentary.
