Travelling Bug

Wow, what an amazing two weeks I had in Germany! It is completely impossible not to love the place. The trains are always on time, the scenery is magnificant, the history is fascinating, and the food is always delicious, as well as constantly available wherever you turn.

For anyone who is a lover of food, I highly recommend visiting the Turkish Market in Berlin (as far as my memory serves me you take the U1 to Gorlitzer Bhf, then walk the whole way up the street, and its just beside the river). The place was full of fresh food, whether its veg or fruit or meat, or even just take away Turkish meals or snacks, and all taste superb. The Turkish know how to do real food and seriously low prices (99 cent for a Kilo of apples!!). Who needs Tesco??



So, after bopping around Germany for the past two weeks, learning more of the language and culture, the ever present travel bug has gotten a new lease of life, and rainy Ireland suddenly seems even more depressing than when I left. The result of all this?? The TEFL (Teach English as a Foreign Language) course is well under way. With 6 out of 20 modules done in a week and a half, my September 10th deadline cant come fast enough. And when that is done and dusted, there are only a few mere months in college between me and the world!! How much more exciting can u get??

So for the moment, I will have to simply get my fix from the travel channel, German music in the car, google images of Asia, and my desperate attempts to recreate some of the amazing meals I had in Germany. Will keep you posted on how that goes. For now, here are a few images from the country that has stolen my heart.
