Coming to Germany has definitely been an experience, and many things have broken my expectations of the country as a whole. There is definitely a lot to go over as far as expectations, so let's get right into it.
For starters, there is a lot of greenery in the city. There is so much greenery, in fact, that the city is nearly overrun with giant trees and groundcover. I was really surprised with the sheer scale of the trees here. Everything in the streets here is bigger than in Arkansas, from the trees to the buildings. Everything except for the cars are bigger, the cars being so small that a baker's dozen can easily fit on the side of a street.
Overall, the nature here is astounding. Even farther from the city you can see great fields of grains near the coast of the Baltic Sea. This really surprised me because of the preconceived idea of urbanization in Germany that I have taken to believe. Some of the older buildings even have thick straw roofing in the stead of roofing tiles.
I look forward to seeing even more of Berlin and Germany, so stay tuned for more updates. Tschüss!
