Enticing Deutch Odyssey

WHY?

Imagine, put a dot in the middle of a piece of paper. Than draw an arrow of similar length each to its right and left. At the end of the arrows, put down dots once more.. ALright, the right and left dot would respectively represent the nearest happening in Germany and in Netherlands.. AAND!Uve got it right! I LIVED IN THE MIDDLE DOT, which would be in the middle of nowhere!!

-Nearest train station 20 minutes away by car

-Very seldom do buses stop by my place or go frm my place to the nearest 'town'

Nevertheless, i had loads of fun! Within this 2 weeks, there were lotsa activities held in Osnabrück (this was the city where most of the midstay participants stayed except 3, and i was one of them!) I had to take a 90 minute train ride to get to these activities while others took not more than a 20 minute bus ride. My guest family was really nice and funny too..

But anw, was worth it!

I watched a football match too.. A piece of advice next time if you intend to go to germany for a football match.. Either you wear a jacket with a hood or you get the highest spot in the stadium where theres no crowd behind you. Otherwise, your hair will be moisturised with delicate german beer... =) These ppl toss beer cups when their team scores a goal, concedes a goal..etc.. wierd...

Oh here are some interesting facts..

-When i was in Osnabrück, after parties, ppl go home taking the bus at 3am..Cool huh?

- Did you know that it was actually against the law to wash your car at home? Ppl are supposed to bring their cars to these petrol kiosks to go for autocleaning..

-Theoratically, its also not allowed to duplicate keys without going through a list of agencies (like your insurance companies etc etc)..

So, this is all from me for now.. Pictures will follow.. =)
