Expectations

This won't be my first time going to Europe, so I do have some idea of how Europe is as opposed to how Hollywood chooses to represent it. I've only ever been to one country though, one in the Mediterranean, and I know that there can be many differences in two different places, even if it's just a few hours away. This applies to America, and Europe too. That being said, I don't really have many expectations. Mostly I'm just looking forward to seeing the differences in culture, even the little stuff, enjoying the food, and see more of the world. This will be especially fun for me since I've only had one year of German (smart right?). I just hope that my host family understands that I am an ignorant, French speaking American and take pity on me. I'm gonna need it. I'm done getting everything I need so now it's just getting it all together and going. Only two days left and then auf wiedersehen America! LETS DO THIS!
