I've Arrived!

Well, I am finally here in Germany!

My flight was very long and I got through a lot of movies! I even watched another "Herbie" movie after I quite enjoyed the one we watched at school last week.

I was picked up from the airport and driven to my new house. They don't really have a speed limit on the motorway here so we were travelling at well over 100km/h which is a bit different from home!

At my new house I have a big bedroom that even has a couch and a sink in it. I have unpacked all of my things already and have even had a quick look around the neighbourhood where I live. All of the houses are three storeys and the streets are lined with big trees- it's a very pretty part of town! Jason has shown me where the supermarket is and we went in to buy a few things. It was quite tricky reading all the labels in German but I did understand the lady at the counter when she told me the price in German so that was good!

Well here are some pictures from around the neighbourhood and some from our house. This weekend I am going to the markets to buy a bike so that will be exciting!

Jason's Rugby

A few people have been asking for updates on Jason's rugby games. I have all of the results on the right of the page and a few pictures attached too.

Just one more sleep until I leave and I am very excited....although I can't talk about it at the moment because I have completely lost my voice!!

I will let you all know how I am when I have settled in. Thank you to those people who have already emailed me!

P.S: Shivaun, tell mum that I've already got a few people catching a ride in my suitcase and I don't think there will be quite enough room to squeeze one more...

Goodbye


Thank you Room 10 (and other visitors from other classes at Coatesville) for making my last day at Coatesville so special! You all looked amazing all dressed up and it made it very difficult to say goodbye. I will be in touch soon to let you know when I have arrived in Frankfurt. Enjoy your holidays and be safe!

Time to Pack!


Well my plane ticket is all booked for the 25th of September so that means I have 3 weeks to organise everything that I will need for my move to Germany. I am sure you can imagine that it would be very hard to decide what to pack and what to leave behind! I am only taking one suitcase and I can only pack it with 20kgs of 'stuff'- help!

I am spending a lot of my spare time organising many things that you don't really think about like bank accounts, insurance, international drivers licence and even my C.V. (so I can be a teacher in Germany if I want to). So much to do and so little time to do it....oh well, that's what makes life interesting and fun filled!

If you have any questions for me about my preparations for my trip leave a comment and I will try and answer your question.
