Off to Germany

Flugzeug!

Monday, I will be heading to Germany for a couple weeks and you lucky blog readers get to hear all about it! The purpose of the trip is what a bit of seeing what's there, a bit of experience, a bit of language practice, and a bit of pre-fieldwork. (See this great blog post for more information, thanks to E. for the link.)

I will start the trip by staying with friends in Bonn and, perhaps, Köln. After that, I will visit three possible fieldsites: Dresden, Leipzig, und Berlin. Each is a possibility for where I will eventually study, so getting a feel for the areas before deciding on one will be immensely useful for me. Overall, the trip should be great!
