It's been awhile since I've posted anything on here and for that I apologize. A lot has happened in the two and a half months I've been living in Hamburg. I've grown and learned so much, not just in my German language abilities, but also as a person. For all intents and purposes I stared my life over from scratch last November, more completely than if I had gone directly to college, and I'm still figuring out how to deal with that. I go to class five days a week, spend some times with friends, spend more time relaxing by myself, and don't spend as much time exploring Hamburg as I want to. In some ways it sounds a lot like how I lived back in America, but on the other hand, it's completely different. I spend four hours, five days a week speaking German with six other people, none of whom are from the same county. I hang out with a lot of (French) Swiss people, some from Turkey, and the others from all over the world. I listen to German music, watch movies in German (not very much) attempt to read a book in German every few weeks or so. And throughout it all I am surrounded by the wonderful city of Hamburg.
