she's 30! she's from kansas originally, but would have moved to colorado when she was 18 for college and has been there since. i don't know if that works for your time line, but i'd still love to figure out a friendship line for them if not! rachael has a very large, overly involved family, and her grandmother is originally from poland and rachael spent a summer traveling through eastern europe and germany to get in touch with her roots. so either way she would have been very keen to meet someone from germany.
