Easter in Germany


The people in Germany are really into celebrating Easter! I think almost more than in America. You can find boiled eggs and bunnies everywhere! They even sell pre-colored boiled eggs at the grocery stores! I never seen this in America...and I'm not quite sure that it would work because they are not kept in the fridge or cooler and the eggs are not as fully cooked as we would expect.

Exchange begins


Hi everyone!

This is my new blog, where I'll be posting about my life in Germany.
To start off here are some pictures of the exchange students trip to Heidelberg, Germany.
I'll be posting here from time to time, so make sure you check back at least once a month and leave lots of comments!

I am doing fine so far. The weather is cold! I think about 35 degrees! But no worries, I have a coat! I have been taking German classes since I arrived (hopefully I will be close to fluent by the time I leave) and recently began business classes. Classes in Germany are taught a bit different, but im sure just as effective. I am looking forward to really getting into the material, the projects, and the field trips that are planned!
