I’ve been waiting for a little bit to officially write about this because my brain keeps going into its own cycles of what if patterns. Nani?? Back in mid July, at the end of my trip home, I finally applied to the High Performance Sports master’s program at Universität des Saarlandes.

It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas?

Who’s Bad? …Harzburg
First time riding a long distance train...What's the worst that can happen? The way to Bad Harzburg was a train ride through the gorgeous green countryside of central Germany.
