I moved to Hamburg in 2014 from Vancouver Island after finishing my degree in Tourism & Event Management. I’ve lived and breathed Hamburg since then! My fully self-employed as a Global Event & Marketing Manager but my side passions are creating content about life in Germany and travel. I am also the founder of the BBA Community, have a TikTok account (+80k) about my life in Germany/Europe, love to write stories and share videos about my life on Instagram (+100k) and share tips about Hamburg on @HannahsHamburg. Aside from all that, you can find me dancing in my flat in Eimsbüttel daily or biking to my favourite yoga class.
'Wherever you go, there you are' is a favourite quote of mine. Sometimes, I really do think - how did I end up here? Love is what brought me here initially, but even though the relationship didn’t work out - my love of Germany is what made me stay. I can now say, I have made tons of opportunities for myself and I don't regret a single minute. Now my focus is inspiring others on their journeys in Germany or abroad.
My middle name is Teslin, I've always wanted to change my name to it since I was a little girl. However, time ran by and now it’s too awkward to change my name now. Maybe, it's my 'alter ego' in a way? However, this blog originally started as a travel blog, but now I’ve switched my focus on traveling through my life here in Hamburg & Germany.
An anchor is a symbol of Hamburg, it’s also a symbol of the ocean and the friends I have made here. I have always lived by a large body of water in my life, and I feel that it fits.
