50 Random Facts About Me TAG



Since I haven't been blogging for very long (not even a week :D) I thought it might be a good idea if you got to know me a little better. So here are 50 random facts about me:


1. I was born and raised in Germany. I live near Munich and I love my hometown!

2. My mum is English and my dad is from Switzerland. Don't ask me how we ended up in German.

3. I'm totally addicted to series. My favourite series of all time are Gossip Girl, Desperate Housewives, The Vampire Diaries, Breaking Bad and The Walking Dead. Sorry, but I couldn't narrow it down anymore!

4. I have a dog, her name is Chelsea and she is a golden retriever. I love her so much!

5. If i could, i would eat pasta every day. No joke! I love it so much, I wouldn't even get bored of it.

6. I have two younger sisters and we all look very similar. Sometimes, we even get asked if we are twins, even though Tessa is 16 and Sara 14 (with twins I mean Tessa and me).

7. Oh, and by the way I'm 18 years old.

8. I used to be obsessed with the Harry Potter books in elementary school and of course I have seen all the movies and I even want to go and see the Harry Potter exhibition in London one day. I heard it should be really good. I guess I'll always like Harry Potter, but I'm definitely not obsessed anymore...

9. Now my favourite books are from the trilogy "The girl with the dragon tattoo", written by Stieg Larsson. I've already read all of the books and I've seen the Hollywood movie, but I really want to watch the Swedish movies, since I've heard that they should be so much better. My favourite character is defininetly Lisbeth Salander!

10. I've just started studying in October, but unfortunately I can't say what I'm studying, because it is very specific. There are only 3 studies that exist in Germany, which are similar to what I'm studying...

11. I hate horror films, but I love haunted houses. Trust me, I don't understand it either! The first time I went into a haunted house was when I was 16 years old and I was so afraid that I even ran out of it again. This was actually really embarrassing! Somehow my best friend managed to persuade me into going into more haunted houses and I'm not quite sure how (maybe cause to the adrenaline) I became sort of addicted... so now I love haunted houses... but I still hate horror films!

12. I have really light freckles, but because of my makeup you can't really see them.

13. My favourite city is Barcelona. I just love the Spanish culture and the language. I visited Barcelona 2 or 3 times, I'm not quite sure. I'm also really inclined to go visit Madrid one day!

14. I'm pretty tall. I'm 1,78 m or 5ft10. As I was younger I wanted to be shorter, but now I'm very confident with my height.

15. Lately I've been loving Drake's album "Nothing Was the Same" and yes, I know I'm late on this.

16. My hair is always completely straight. People often ask me, if I straighten my hair, but I basically just blow-dry it every morning after I get out of the shower.

17. My two favourite movies of all time are "Django Unchained" and "Blood Diamond". If you haven't watched them yet, go watch them now! :)

18. I don't ever drink coffee. Sometimes when I meet up with friends for coffee, I'll have a cappuchino, but only with a lot of sugar, otherwise it would taste far too strong. That is why, I have decided to just stay away from coffee... I really don't need it, especially not if I put tons of sugar in it!

19. My absolute favourite clothing store is ZARA!

20. For some weird reason I don't like a lot of fruits, such as pineapples, grapefruit, oranges... and I absolutely hate bananas! I hate the smell, the consistency, just everything about them!

21. My first pet I ever had was a guinea pig named Caty.

22. My biggest fear are snakes. I don't even know what I would do, if I ever saw one in real life... Weirdly enough I'm not that afraid of spiders, like pretty much everyone else.

23. The only concert I ever went to, was a Beyoncé concert and I was around 12 years old. I used to love all her songs back then and I also was a fan of Destiny's Child.

24. Dark Red is my favourite colour.

25. I am not sure if my hair is dark blond or light brown. Everyone tells me something else... but in my opinion I'm a brunette. :)

26. I'm hardly ever on time, but I'm working on it! My goal this year is to always be as punctual as possible and so far I've stuck to it.

27. I have never been to a festival in my life, but I would love to go to Tomorrowland one day, I mean who wouldn't.

28. Roses are my favourite kind of flowers (who would've thought...)

29. I really want to swim with dolphins one day. That is definitely one thing, that's on my bucket list!

30. My second name is Isobel, which is also my mum's name.

31. I don't have any tattoos, nor do I plan on getting any, even though I like tattoos. I just know that if I ever was to get one, I would end up hating and regretting it some day... 

32. I always carry a bottle of water with me.

33. I love macarons! My favourite is the pistachio one. :)

34. I'm a really bad driver. I even failed my driving test twice...

35. I mostly wear a light pink lipstick or lipbalm. I don't think I ever wore red lipstick in public. I don't know why, but I just don't think it suits me. I do think it looks great on other people, though.

36. I love Victoria's Secret sents. In my opinion they smell very different (in a good way obviously), compared to all the other parfumes. My absolute favourite sent is "VS Bombshell".

37. I can speak German, English, French (medium) and a bit of Spanish.

38. I always have to wear a lipbalm.

39. I did a language study travel for 3 weeks in Nice. I had to live together with 13 other girls from all around the world (Mexico, Columbia, Norway, Switzerland,...) and it was one of the best experiences in my life. I would recommend it to everyone!

40. I love UGGs. I'm perfectly aware of not everyone liking them, but they are just sooo comfortable and personally I do find them to look good on me.

41. For some odd reason, I love rain and snow. Don't get me wrong I like summer and sun, too, but I think I'm more of an autumn and winter person.

42. I can't apply false lashes and I don't think I'll ever be able to. I'd rather just stick to mascara (which I do)!

43. I had braces for over 2 years and I was 13 years old, as I first got them. I'm so happy I had braces, otherwise I'd still have a gap between my two front teeth.

44. I went on the seventh-highest water slide (21m) in the world (Aqua Parc at Largo di Garda in Italy), as I was about 14 years old. I don't even think I was that nervous or even afraid back then, but I could never do something like that again... I would be too afraid!

45. I still love roller coasters, though.

46. I'm definitely more of an introverted person. I don't open myself up to a lot of people.

47. I never curl my hair, because my hair is too straight to even hold the one. None the less, I love curly hair!

48. I started wearing makeup as I was 14 years old. I did some BIG mistakes back then, such as foundation on my lips, too much blush on my cheeks or very heavy eyeliner... I've done it all! :D

49. I've been doing exercise every morning for about two weeks now. This is CRAZY for me, but I definitely feel so much better and energised than I used to!

50. I'm obsessed with green tea. I have to have it at least once a day.


I think I've written enaugh... :)
