“It all started with a dispute I had with my landlord. I instantly decided I didn't want to live there anymore – and then I realized: Actually, I didn't want to live anywhere anymore,†she said in a letter to the Washington Post.
She also stated that her boyfriend gave her the idea make the life change when he noted that she was spending too much time commuting between Cologne, where he lived, her flat in Stuttgart and her college in Tubingen. He helped her understand that she did not spend much time at home anyway, reported by Germany’s Der Spiegel.
Now, Leonie has literally lived on trains for almost half a year, washing her hair in train bathrooms and writing her college papers while traveling at speeds of up to 190 mph. Her entire life now fits in a small backpack containing her clothes, her tablet computer, college documents and a bag for toiletries.
She travels some 1,200 - 2,000 kilometer per week on average, making trips between her college, her boyfriend’s apartment in Cologne, her grandmother’s house in Bielfeld and Berlin, where her mother lives.
