We left at 5:45am and flew home this past Friday. The day was quite long, and I slept the majority of it. Instead of boring all you readers with those details, I figured I’d do a reflection on the trip. Overall, I loved the trip and I am ultimately sad to go. This was my…

Today we woke up bright and early and did something a little different; we had a free day. 12 out of 18 of us went to Salzburg Austria. This required us to buy train tickets and navigate not only a new city but also a new country on our own. We were very lucky to…

So today was presentation day. Therefor this blog will be relatively short as for the majority of the day we just worked on our presentation and then presented them.

Today was an early morning as we left at 8am. The drive took about an hour and a half to the beautiful castle of Neuschwanstein. Now although this was such an awesome experience, I messed up. I did not look at the forecast and wore a dress. It was 40 degrees and pouring down rain….

Today we woke up bright and early and left @8am. The bus ride was about 2 hours long and it took us to the oldest city in Germany; it was called Regensburg. This city was so pretty to see, and it almost reminded me of Italy. They had these structures called beer gardens that were…

Today we visited the great city of Munich. We began our day around 9am and hopped on a train around 10am. This was my first time on this train, and it was so cool. The one thing I really love about Germany is all the public transportation. It is so convenient being able to just…

Today we woke up early; we all went to bed on the bus which is starting to become a pattern. I think it helps us without jet lag. Anyways today was the day we were all excited for; we visited the Audi factory. First off let me say this was by far the most interesting…

Today we woke up pretty early. Although we were all tired, we were excited for the day. Today we got to go to a traditional non-touristy German restaurant for breakfast. They served us veal/pork sausage, pretzels, honey mustard, and some cheese and crackers. Additionally, you normally receive beer as well, but we opted out for…

Today was a great day! For starters we did not leave until 9:15am so we all got to sleep in. I think those extra 2-3 hours really helped with all of our jet lag. We departed at 9:15am and arrived around 10am. Today we visited the Tier 1 supplier called GROB. Let me just start…

Today was an exciting day; we went on our first company visit! We departed extremely early at 7:15am. All of us were exhausted and slept on the bus until we got there. Around 8:15am we arrived at Hoerbiger. Immediately the whole group was welcomed, and they showed us to a room where we got some…
