From 07.10 to 17.10 I went on a Deutschland tour with the other exchange students in District 1900. Hamburg. Berlin. Dresden. Muenchen. Rothenburg ob der Tauber. 53 Exchange students, 1 Bus, 2 Rotarians and 4 Rotex members.
A video was made by Helena Del Bianco from Brazil, you can see below.
We started in Bielefeld on
the 7th October and then travelled first to Hamburg. We then went to
Berlin, through Dresden then Muenchen in Bavarian Germany and then went to
Rothenburg ob der Tauber. We made so many photos and I will share some with you
in the powerpoint presentation J. My favourite places were Berlin, Muenchen and Rothenburg ob der
Tauber. Berlin had so many historic things to see and I would like to go back
to see more of the memorials and all. We were able to visit the Olympian
Stadion in our free time and I thought it was so cool, it may be just a stadium
but it was known as the vision of Hitler. The other exchanges and I spoke about
how he was able to so much in such a short amount of time. We concluded that he
was a very smart and influential man but sadly he used his abilities to cause
destruction instead of promote world peace. Muenchen I found was really cool
because it looked typical German everywhere to me. All of the old houses had
flowers overhanging on the outside and it was such a beautiful city. We were
able to meet up with other rotary exchanges in that district, it was cool to
meet new people – my friends and I met a boy whose family was the second
richest in France and he has his own castle and everything, it was crazy his
family was almost royal. Rothenburg ob der Tauber was such a cute little city,
we only had a night and day there but it was a nice way to finish the tour. I
learnt on the tour that places that ended with burg are places that have a
castle and was established in that location because of this castle. I thought
that was also cool.
