Guten Tag! My name is Megan, I am 27 years old, currently living in Germany. Representing the Irish diaspora in Germany as the 2023 Germany Rose is a great privilege, which I deeply appreciate.
I am on the verge of completing my Political Science graduate programme, focusing on Europe. Post-graduation, I will continue my work at a policy-related service company, engaging citizens and stakeholders at the municipal and state level. It is interesting work because it's diverse and I love passing on proposals that people work on together! Oftentimes, I am humbled by what I learn from listening to other people's experiences.
My mother is from Coachford, Co Cork. She emigrated to Germany in 1992 after meeting my father in Crete. We try to spend a few weeks every year with my Irish family. I have positive and vivid memories of lively family gatherings, prancing around farm animals and nature.
Others describe me as calm, sincere, and considerate. I enjoy being active outdoors, singing, and having a good laugh. I belong to a housing association that promotes solidarity-based living as an alternative to profit-oriented housing.
I'm excited to connect with amazing young women and embark on this unique, once-in-a-lifetime experience!
