Marissa's Journey to Germany

Current Location

Saarbrücken, Germany

Hi, I'm Marissa! This year I'm teaching English and exploring German culture from my home base in Saarbrücken, Germany! I'm looking forward to sharing my experiences with you!

Logbooks

November is officially here! I saw my first Santa hat of the year on Sunday. Germany is ready for Christmas. Plus, I had my first trip to France!

Journals

It’s time to say goodbye! There are so many ways to say it, but Germans often prefer Aufwiedersehen, or "Until we see each other again." It makes saying "goodbye" a lot easier!

Field Notes

Germans love bureaucracy, order and community service. There are many government programs that support those in need in addition to charity organizations.

Happy Holidays! Christmas (market) time is here!
