Woohoo! I love being in Germany!

Next weekend, as a group, the IFK is going to Schengen, an uncontrolled border between Luxemburg, France, and Germany, and then to Arlon, Belgium.

My classes are over next Thursday, and then I believe I'm going to take the train to Düsseldorf to visit Esther for a week!

Mao, a friend of mine from the IFK, is traveling Germany for the next month or so, so I may meet her in Stuttgart, Köln, Berlin, and/or Frankfurt.

My friend Naomi, who is also a student at Hamline and is spending a year abroad, will arrive in Europe soon. We're thinking about hitting up Oktoberfest in München!

My goodness... the adventures to come.

Well, sounds like you are having an amazing time so far!! Keep the posts coming :D It's lovely to hear about Germany from someone who's really experiencing it first hand!

You be careful at that Oktoberfest thing. Those Munchkins can get wild.

Huhu,
I love reading about how you are experiencing our country (I so noticed the thing about "German" music :D ).. tell me, when you come to the Oktoberfest!! I'm leaving for Hungary in a little less than a week, but I'll come back for some exams in September and will be living at the Wiesn from Friday 19th till Sunday 21th, so it'd be reeeally cool, if could meet up!

Oh man, that'd be awesome, Lea! I'm going to send you an e-mail... do you know of/recommend anywhere I could stay for that weekend? And, if you're going to be there that weekend, I will come then!

Hey,
I'm sorry, I couldn't find this post again :D.
So, I hope you haven't changed your plans yet and you still want to come! I'm already in Hungary now (got a blog zu by the way, just to practise your German ;) http://lea-lost-in-hungary.blogspot.com/), but it's definite, that I will come back probably till Tuesday, since I have to move out of my appartment. Sry, this does not make any sense, what I was going to say is: it will probably be impossible to find any place to stay at now, because people start booking their hotel in the winter. Mh.. I would love to let you stay at my place, but my parents will be there and it would be kinda hard to put them AND drunk Americans into my appartment ;) have you looked for youth hostels or anything? I will ask some friends of mine, if you could stay there for the weekend, but I can't promise.. mh.. let me think some, maybe I can find something :)
aaah, this is so exciting! it'd be soo cool to meet you!!
