Welcome! Wilkommen!

I would like to welcome you to my European Extravaganza blog. I intend to use this blog to share my advantures abroad as a Fulbright Scholar. This blog will give my family and friends back home a chance to know what I am up to through posts and pictures. I hope you will share in my experiences and have some fun with me. - Emma

Hello!

Please forgive me for my lack of blogging. Life has finally found a consistancy. I spend my week working a fews hours each morning and then spend the afternoons in my German class or tutoring. The last few weekends have been full with activities planned with my English co-workers. Thanksgiving was celebrated on Friday instead of Thursday as all of use Fulbright scholars here in Dresden had to work on Nov. 25. Nevertheless we got 20 people together to eat the usual dishes, although there was some difficulty finding a turkey! The weather has since turned cold and for the last three days snow has fallen. It looks so pretty. Last weekend was the start of the Christmas markets. They are so much fun. Yes, it is cold, but I like looking at all stuff for sale and there is always good food available. For those who do not know, I am going home for two weeks around Christmas. I am looking forward to seeing everyone and sleeping in my own bed. Thats all for now and I will post some pictures of the Christmas markets asap.
