I arrived back from Berlin at about 1am early Monday morning. I slept until the afternoon and went to my favorite class, transcultural communication. In the evening I had literature history, and that night I decided not to do much. I was pretty exhausted from the long trip.
On Tuesday I had lit. again, and then I went out to lunch with an Austrian friend of mine, Verena. We ate at Universum, as usual. I will miss it there. It's a restaurant with a student friendly priced lunch.
On Wednesday I had German class, then met with my Austrian buddy Steffi for coffee. She loves America as much as I love Germany, so it's fun to talk to her about travel and culture. After that I taught the two little girls English that I meet with every week.
On Thursday I had class and then I went to Verena's apartment and watched the end of Germany's Next Top Model with her. I'd never seen it before. I had to laugh-Heidi Klum is a bit over the top....
Today I had to work. I am really enjoying my internship with the Büro für Internationale Beziehungen (Study Abroad Office). I enjoy reading the applications from students. I love reading about their motivation for study abroad and where they want to go. It makes me think of my own future travel plans. In the afternoon I decided to take a walk. It had occurred to me that I had never walked any further than the grocery store on my street. So I took an hour and walked as far as I wanted to. Originally the goal was to get to this beautiful hill full of greenery and beautiful, Austrian style houses on it. It reminds me of Heidi and grandfather's mountain. Well, after walking for about 45 minutes I was disappointed to discover that the hill was still far far away. Too bad :(
Before I leave I would still like to:
-go to the Salzburg Zoo
-walk around Salzburg and take pictures
-go to Innsbruck
-go to Chiemsee
-swim in a lake near Salzburg
Only 3 more weeks here :(
Love, Molly
