Frances in Germany

I studied for a little over one year in Paderborn Germany, from July 2005 to August 2006. These are my accounts of life in Germany. Enjoy the mishaps, spaniards, and super bees, I sure did!

Copenhagen


Here is most of our group with the Mermaid Statue of Copenhagen.

So once we found the hostel, the first night was spent drinking in the parking lot. They wouldn’t let us bring alcohol into the hostel, so we drank outside. The next day we all exchanged our money (they use Cronas, not Euros) and did some sight seeing. We spent most of the day walking around and by mid afternoon it was pouring rain and we were tired. Some of us went back to the hostel and took a nap and others went to the nearby hippie village of Christiania. The rest of us went there later. By evening we were tired again and went back to the hostel and got some food at a nearby pizza place. I was one of the few who didn’t go out because I was just too worn out. But in the morning Ivan and Maria and Eduardo were at the hospital because some time in the middle of the night Maria’s foot (she was drunk) and a bicycle (not one she was riding) had an incident and they wanted to make sure her foot was not broken. In short, she got run over by a bike. Luckily it was just sprained, but we cut our trip short because she couldn’t walk anymore. So we skipped any adventure on Sunday to drive home. It’s ok, the whole group was exhausted by then. We all had a great time. Where we went and what we did was not important, just that we were all together and having fun. There’s not much more time for that, so it was nice to get one last big trip in with these guys.
