I just wanted to take a minute and explain how living on your own can result in many domesticating experiences. Since I have been in Germany I have done many things that I would have not typically done or ever really wished to do. As you read early today I slept in a train station, I have done my own laundry, cooked, bought groceries, and cleaned all without my mother telling me too!! Not only have I been able to accomplish these everyday survival tasks, but I have recently had a really domestic moment.
In Rehutte I live with 3 female Germans and one kid from Illinois. Well come to find out these women like to have parties, and not just any kind of party but something most men would not attend. That is right I am talking about a Tupperware party!!!! As of 2/16 I officially attended my first and last tupperware party.
When coming to Europe I had people telling me that I would have the time of my life and experience many things, and they were right. For you future foreign travelers, don't be afraid to try everything, and I do mean everything. Even if it is a tupperware party or going to a local festival, it will be something to remember for a long time to come.
Now and update of future blog posts:
Gerald and Jayme (aka mom and farmer of the year dad) will be joining me from the 20th through the 26th! I am not going to spill the details of our trip to keep up the suspense, but they should be entertaining as my jet lagged parents track across Europe! If you care to see pictures from my trips they are loaded on my Facebook Profile.
Until next time...
