Hi all!
So, first off I just want to say sorry for not posting anything the last two months, I am really, really sorry! So much has changed since October! I've changed host families, I've traveled lots, I've started going to a church here, and I've eaten more food than ever (I am coming home so fat o.O) Oh and I made Thanksgiving Dinner all by myself :)
Lets see where to begin....
I started going to Poznan International Church in mid-October and I went on a retreat the first weekend of November :) It was an amazing experience and I made some wonderful friends! I also moved host families and I am with an amazing family :) So all in all that weekend was pretty amazing :D I have gained a newfound respect for anyone who made Thanksgiving Dinner this year. It was so hard! I mean, I knew it would take some effort but I didn't realize how much it would take! It was totally worth it though, because it turned out alright! (although it was definitely different tasting...mostly because my Mom is magical when it comes to cooking whereas I'm...well, passable I guess ;) ) Later in November I went to Lodz and saw Muse (a British band) in concert and it was MINDBLOWINGLY AWESOME! The weekend after that my host family took me to Berlin, and I must say, I fell in love with Berlin. It is a beautiful city and very interesting :) We went to Checkpoint Charlie, Christmas Markets, and Alexander Plac! The weekend after that we went to Torun, the city that Nicholas Copernicus is from and that was really cool too! I made gingerbread :D (No, gingerbread and Copernicus don't have much in common except for Torun is famous for both ;) ) Anyway, that's a a very, very abridged version of what's been going on, but I promise I will be better at posting in the future!
Much love!!
-Becca
