School has come back around... that means summer is over. I have been talking with class mates a good bit about their summers and I hear from many people, "My summer was:" relaxing, boring, laid back, even long. Then I think about my summer... I can truthfully say the only one of that list that fits is long and that is only because I managed to do so much. The trip to Germany was one of the most cram packed trips I have ever been on and I loved it!! When people ask about the trip I always start off describing it with, "We went to a lot of places, in fact, we stayed at 14 different places and that is not including the number of trains we slept in as an overnight. Again though, this trip was a stimulation to every fiber in my being.
It would be difficult for me now to say what I gained, and how I grew, from this trip. It would probably be better to ask those around me to give their opinion. Regardless, the connections I made and those bonds will forever last. That is what I wanted most in this trip, an understanding and the connections. Both of which would be difficult to leave this program without.
