Ted Mentele

Growing up in Wisconsin, Ted found a love for nature, cheese, and deep-fried food. He studied German, and in 2013 decided to move to Berlin for a bit. After five years teaching English, six trips to the visa office, and a number of pleas from his Mother for him to move home, he’s still there. When he’s not editing away at Babbel, he spends his time listening to weird music, collecting sci-fi books, and thinking about birds.
