A Short Excursion
The picture on the right is, ladies and gentlemen, the only store located in my really good friend’s village, which is located about 20-30 minutes outside of Hannover. She attends university in Osnabrück, which is why I posted a couple … Continue reading

The Arrival of Christmas Gifts
I’d like to take the time right now to thank whoever was in charge of the Hunt Middle School (Tacoma, WA) students’ schedules during the 2000-2001 academic year. I’ve always been selfish and just pinned it to fate and coincidence … Continue reading

Wanderlust Hits Again
