Bis später Berlin

Wow what an experience. I cannot believe that this program is officially over. I truly never imagined myself seeing Berlin as a second home, but I was proven wrong. I fell in love with the city, the people, my job, and the long hours of daylight. As I write this back in the USA, I…

I <3 Berlin but not the rain

I cannot believe that there are only 4 days left of this program. While I am sad that it is over, I have made some of the best memories while being here. I went to the zoo, saw Charlottenburg Palace, and went to the fan zone for the Euro finals this week. The weather has…

From Greece, to work, to let’s go Germany!!!

Hey everyone! After our delay in Greece, we did finally make it back safe and sound in our hotel room at 11:30pm! It was a little disappointing going from 95 degrees and full sun to 59 degrees and rain, but the weather here in Berlin did turn around for the better (definitely not the same…

I’m gonna take my horse to the Old Town, Rhodes

If someone told me before I came that I was going to go to Greece while I was here I wouldn’t have believed them. I’m still starstruck how gorgeous this country is. My friend and I went to Rhodes, Greece this weekend and it was the perfect getaway. Because Berlin has had rain and 65°…

The City that Never Sleeps

Having a full-time job really takes a lot out of a person. As much as I want to just sleep for hours, I also have this desire to go explore more and more of the city before I have to leave. This week was definitely calmer than others. My friend and I did go to…

Auf geht’s Deutschland!!!!

Wow what a week.   With the Euros beginning there were many events this week. First, my friends and I went to the opening concert on Wednesday which was a lot of fun. I didn’t know one song, but I was there for good vibes. Then Friday came around and it was the night Team…

A Week of Unexpected Turns in Prague

Guten Abend!  I had a great week this week. Work was good and I got to experience one of my first classes with my internship. This was a circuit class, and it was a lot harder than I expected. Not only that, but I also couldn’t feel my legs all weekend. I thought that taking…

Berlin on the Run

Guten Tag! I have been having a wonderful week settling in with my new routine here in Berlin. It was my first full week of work, and my coworkers could not have been more welcoming. I have been sending emails, preparing invoices, reorganizing their systems, and contributing new ideas. Off work, I have been going…

Will it be that hard to fit in here in Berlin?

The first week in Berlin has been nothing but wonderful! We spent so much time touring the city and learning about the history of Germany. We have been to many Biergartens, new restaurants, and famous landmarks, like the Berliner Mauer, Brandenburger Tor, Checkpoint Charlie, and the TV Tower! With internships starting tomorrow, I have been…
