I was in EXE 364 when Dr. Patti came into the room and informed the class of this amazing opportunity to spend two and a half week in Germany. The first thing I did when I walked out of class was call my mom and tell her I'm traveling to Germany. I knew this was an opportunity I could not pass up and I had to do everything I could to make sure this dream came true! My father's family is from Germany and I'm beyond excited to be able to learn more about my heritage. I am mostly excited to learn more about myself after studying abroad. Everyone emphasizes how you don't just learn more about culture when you study abroad, but that you find out so much more about yourself as an individual.
I can't wait to meet my host teacher and her students. I am ready to learn more about education in Germany and gain new strategies and knowledge that I can apply to my future classroom. Living with my host teacher will really allow myself to immerse in the culture and experience everyday life in Germany. I am nervous that I may become homesick, but I'm ready and overly excited to try new things while in Germany and obtain an open mind! This opportunity of a lifetime that I must take full advantage of which is why I extended my trip to also travel to Paris and Amsterdam! June 15th can't come fast enough!
