Paris!
I went to Paris this weekend with five other CBYX’ers. Super exciting. We took the train Friday night, going by TGV so it was only two hours. We sat across the aisle from a 2 1/2 year old who taught us some German and had quite a nice trip. Upon arriving we met Jaimen’s old [...]
It’s been awhile
So, it’s pretty much been forever since I last posted. Sorry about that. Tons of stuff has happened since then. Starting with…
This past weekend was a girl’s trip to Luxembourg and Trier. Amazing time. Trier, as you all should know, is the oldest (or second oldest) city in Germany. The ruins there are pretty [...]

First Days
Yesterday, I didn’t write much but had quite the day. We went to the middle of town to the festival that is going on. I had Weisswurst, quite delicious actually. Then we meandered around until dinner time where we had some interesting ravioli and crepes. Nothing too exciting, just checking out Saarbrücken.
Today I woke up [...]
Saarbrücken!
I found out yesterday that I will be going to Saarbrücken for Language school which is really exciting. This is the city I had hoped for since it’s not huge like Koln, right by France (so I can practice), and is for beginners so I think it’s a little more intense than the other schools [...]
