Wrapping Things Up
It’s getting late here in Freiburg. I’m catching the early train to Frankfurt in the morning, and flying from there back to the States.

On the Autobahn
I’ve talked before about getting around Germany, where the train is definitely my go-to mode of transport. But sometimes I also get the chance to take buses on the autobahn, or German highway.

This Week In Pictures
This week I’m in Rome, Italy enjoying la dolce vita, or the good life. : ) Here are a few photos from the past few days…. Cappuccinos are a must-try in Rome. Italians make some of the best, and my fave is when they sprinkle chocolate on the top…. Back in Germany, I almost never…
