Saying Goodbye To Germany

8/22/2022

It feels like it's been forever since I last posted a blog, and it's probably because it HAS been. I've spent these last few months soaking up everything that I could during my exchange semester in Germany. I met some of the most amazing people and had the best few months of my life. I couldn't wait to wake up every day because each day was an adventure- typically filled with hanging out with my friends, having deep and meaningful conversations, laughing until I almost peed, and eating the most delicious potato wedges from the mensa (I'm obsessed). It was the most fun I'd ever had and it was the most stress-free I'd ever been. This place, the experience, and these people changed me so much, and saying goodbye was honestly brutal. People always say, "don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened," so that's what I'm trying to do, but it's so hard. I don't think I'll be with the same group of international students living life to the fullest ever again. I mean technically that scenario could happen, but realistically thinking, it probably won't. And that is so hard to process after spending so much quality time with them. Someone should've warned me about this, haha. 

Anyways, I am super grateful for my time in Germany and want to end this post on a more positive note with some of my favorite memories from throughout the semester :)
