I came. I saw. I ate lots of food.
Seriously though, a lot has happened in the last month and a half. I arrived here dazed and confused with no idea what I was doing. I am now slightly less confused now that my time here is done. My German skills went from almost non-existent, to the level of a 3-year-old. However, that is being very generous to myself.
I’ve finished my engineering classes of course, but I have learned far more outside of it. I can now get around the city on my own, navigate the various transit systems in Europe and how to figure out where I am when I am lost.
Did I mention the food? I’ve discovered that my favorite German food is Döner kebab, despite it being Turkish food. I have also eaten enough Schnitzel and potatoes to last a lifetime. I’ve had delicious Italian food in Naples as well.
I’ve spent way more time in airports and train stations than I should have and I’ve been to places I never thought I would have just a year ago. I’ve eaten pizza in Naples and visited the home of Martin Luther. It’s been a great set of experiences.
