About madrugada:

Going to Europe this summer; Spain and France to visit friends and then Germany and Poland to participate in a study program through my University (of the Holocaust and discrimination).

Hobbies:

Traveling!

Favourite places:

I liked spelunking in the Warsaw caves (first thing to come to mind), not TOO far from Toronto. I love the Great Ocean Road and the Dandenongs in Australia. I feel really happy being in Cape Town, when I get to go there- seeing the mountains and the Ocean. Being in nature is my favourite place- wherever that might be.

Deutschland

Posted by madrugada | 19th July 2009

So I am in Germany. I have unfortunately been having really bad weather, and am sick, which is never too much fun. However, I like this city. I have seen an overwhelming number of cathedrals, every country I have been in. It is unbelievable how fervently Christians built houses of worship to overshadow the towns. They are usually so beautifully decorated and just so massive. Yesterday we went inside one and were fortunate enough to listen to four men sing acapella; they had these incredibly deep voices. Always sounds mystical, when people chant in certain ways. Music really does create the mood.
I see things and think of people I know, and wish I could teleport them here with me at times. I am happy though, this has been a good trip. No matter what irritations I have felt, they are temporary and usually unnecessary.
Four countries within 18 days... Next time, I am spending more in each, and visiting in depth. This is a whirlwhind.
Poland on the first!
