I can’t believe that the trip is already over. We started our trip back at 5:30am and travelled the entire day. Germany was such an amazing place to visit, and now looking back at the trip, I want to write a reflection post. The first week mainly consisted of visiting different companies and seeing how…

Today was a super early day. I woke up at around 6, but I was very excited because today was the day we have a free day. Most of our group chose to go to Salzburg in Austria. I couldn’t wait to go to a new country entirely. We got on a train headed to…

Today there was no wake up call, so I was able to sleep until 9:30 which was amazing. I woke up feeling great and got right to work preparing our project to be presented. We headed to meet our group at the University by 11:30am. Once we got to the university we met our German…

Today was a great day. My first thought when I woke up this morning at 7am was that this trip has really flown by. I cannot believe that we have our presentations tomorrow and then just one more day left. Moving back to today, we hopped on the bus for about an hour long ride…

Today was another early day, but it was completely fine because I got a much needed good night of sleep the night before. I wasn’t really sure what to expect of Regensburg before we arrived. I tried to not look at too many pictures to keep it a surprise. We arrived after about a two…

Today was in no way a fun or enjoyable day. We woke up early this morning and headed right to Dachau, which was the first concentration camp constructed. On the bus ride there, I was very nervous to actually step foot in the place where more than 42,000 people were killed. I had chills when…

Today was a great day. We met in the lobby very close to 10am which gave me plenty of time to sleep, which was amazing. I was excited because we got to take the train into Munich which was a cool experience. One thing I noticed is that the train stations look like shopping malls…

Today was one of days I was most looking forward to. It was a very early day and I woke up around 6am. You’d think I would be tired, but my excitement took that over and I was wide awake during the entire hour and a half bus ride. Once I arrived, I saw some…

This morning I woke up and hopped right on a bus to go to what is called Weißwürstfruhstuck, or in English terms “white sausage breakfast”. This breakfast took place on a farm about 40 minutes away from our hotel. We were able to drive out through the farmland and observe the beautiful scenery on the…

Today was an amazing day. We met in the lobby nice and late around 9:15am. Today was extra exciting because Grob was the company that I am doing a presentation on. On the bus ride to Grob, I prepared some relevant questions to ask our tour guide/presenter. Immediately after arriving at Grob, I realized how…

Today has been amazing so far. This morning I woke up bright and early at 6am. I changed into nicer clothes and made my way down to the lobby to eat breakfast. After eating a surprisingly good breakfast I made my way to the bus to go to our first site visit at Hoerbiger.  Right…

Today was an amazing day with so many new experiences. I woke up feeling much more well rested and ready for the day. We met in the lobby at 8am to take a ride on the streetcar to the University of Augsburg. This was the first major difference I noticed between Germany and home today….

After 20+ hours of travel we finally made it! Our journey started with an hour and a half flight from Pittsburgh to Charlotte, North Carolina. We then had a 3 hour layover before making the almost 9 hour flight to Munich, Germany. I tried to sleep on the flight, and to my surprise I was…
