Language Camp Wrap Up – Host Family Update

 

 

 

Hey there everyone! 

Sorry it’s been so long since i’ve last made a legitimate post! Language camp was super fun, and an expierence that i will never forget. It’s true, you never will know how much you miss something until it’s gone. We learned more in those 3 weeks than I have in my entire life, I left with my invisible suitcase of knowledge, it was overstuffed with important things. Camp was a great experience filled with fun activities and amazing people. For all of you New CBYXers, be prepared for a life changing experience.

On the last day, the emotions were running high as we all said our goodbyes and watched the ones being picked up leave. I tried SO hard not to cry, but it seemed like everytime I told myself not to, I started to again. ( Dancing Cupcakes didn’t work this time) 😀 But, at 1:30 (13:30) the 15 of us who had the latest leave time, drove away in the taxi and left Schloss Wittgenstein.

Bad Laasphe Train Station

Okay, so my train went from Bad Laasphe-Marburg-Kassel-Augsburg and lets just say the train ride from Kassel to Augsburg was crazy for me! I got in the wrong wagon, then carried my suitcase down to the other end of the train (accidentally hitting people along the way) and it turned out that my wagon was at the opposite end. SUCH A BUMMER.  Once the train conductor said we were in Augsburg my heart started beating so fast! I was so, SO excited to step off of that train and be immersed into my new life for a year. Once I was off, I met with my host mom and we went into a restaurant where I ate Spaetzle and let me tell you, it is the most AMAZING thing on Earth.. oh and then as I was walking to the bathroom I saw my first real person in Lederhosen AND I saw a beer tower!!

  Here’s the Bier Tauer 😀

It was such an eventful night 😀 After that we drove to my cute little village of Zusmarshausen.
