I’m at my host family’s house now. Yesterday, after waiting around for several hours for everyone’s plane to arrive, we took a 2 hour bus ride from the airport to AIB. We were there just long enough for them to hand us our phones and an info packet, and introduce us to our families. I was picked up by the son of my host parents (I think his name is Rüdigar?), and his girlfriend, and one other friend. They’re all around 25, so it hasn’t been bad so far. And they all speak English. So they made me dinner, and we just hung out until the parents came in later last night. I think I’m the 6th student they’ve hosted, so they’re used to this. They were very nice, and showed me around the area, mostly to help me find the bus stops. This morning for breakfast, I had some kind of meat and bread. Very German; it was pretty good. Now they’ve gone to work (he’s a lawyer, I’m not sure what she does), and everyone is talking on Facebook because we’ve all been abandoned and can’t read German. I think I’m about to leave to meet Emily at AIB (hopefully), and then go see Beethovenhaus. So wish me luck.
Also, I wouldn’t expect updates this often from now on :p. Class starts tomorrow, and maybe we won’t all be afraid to go outside.
