The past 2 and a half months have flown by sooooo quickly. I can’t believe I am nearly a quarter way through this exchange. I am so happy with my decision and I would never change it for the world. Yes it is extremely hard to pack up and leave your friends and family for a year (especially at 17). But if it was easy then everyone would be doing it.
This past weekend was my host sisters wedding and that was amazing in itself. I may have cried a little bit, but that was because I am a very emotional person. This coming weekend (30.03/31.03) I am going away for two and a half weeks to travel around “southern” Europe. I am so excited for this opportunity as I am going to meet so many amazing people and I am going to travel to parts of the world where, surprisingly, my parents haven’t been.
We are finally getting into spring with the weather finally warming up. I even have been wearing shorts around the house for the first time since I got here.
The rotary meetings here are kind of boring at the moment because I have no idea what they are talking about. I can pick up a few words here and there but I can’t fully grasp the meaning of what they are saying. But the food is absolutely amazing. German food is the best food you could eat. The bread is amazing, the bratwurst is amazing and I will probably become sick of potatoes by the end of my exchange because we eat potatoes with every dinner
