Hallo! Wilkommen nach Deutschland!
OK. I'll stop pretending like I've suddenly become fluent in the past two weeks. :)
We are in Germany and really loving it! We arrived on the 2nd of August and hit the ground running. Since Peter and I are both going to be working at the school (I told you all this already, right?) we have a lot of work to do. We have been, as the military calls it, in-processing, which basically just means filling out a lot of paperwork at many different offices on base. We haven't had a ton of time to just explore yet, but have tried to take nice long walks in the evenings to scope out our new home.
I'll try to post some pics soon. Right now we're staying at the Hotel Ross in Schweinfurt. We actually have a little apartment that's part of the hotel, with a small kitchenette and living room. It's all located right in the heart of Schweinfurt which is a charming city with cute shops and restaurants all around. We have successfully found many delicious restaurants, bakeries, and gelaterias! We're pacing ourselves so we don't gain 50 lbs by the end of the year. :)
We have already made some friends with people from our school. Everyone has been really welcoming and lovely. I have had moments of homesickness both for family and friends in St. Louis and Korea and I'm sure I will continue to miss both homes, but we also feel really blessed and happy to be here.
We're on the hunt for a house. We saw a great place last week that we hoped to sign a lease for, but the landlord backed out so he could lease to a friend instead. We're hoping to get a home soon so we'll have room for YOU! :)
we'll write more soon.
xoxo
