I have eaten so much ice cream (if you aren’t in Europe or following the weather here we’re having a heat wave, and ice cream is a delicious way to beat the heat), gone swimming with friends in a lake near us, and had multiple dinner and card game evenings with friends as we celebrated our time here. The past couple of weeks have passed in a blur of finals, papers, and making the most of every moment. Little did I know how quickly the time would fly by. When I got off the train my first day in Freiburg, June and this post felt like an eternity away. Writing this post feels almost unreal, because it means that I have to acknowledge that many of my new friends are done and home and that others, myself included, will soon be. To summarize these past four months is nearly impossible, as I have learned so much, met so many wonderful people, and experienced so many amazing things. Although I will still be here for another month, this will be my last blog post as I look back on the past four months of living, growing, and thriving in Freiburg. Our IES Abroad program officially ended on Saturday, but I am still in Freiburg with the other students who will be staying for university courses. But I was also so incredibly excited to get started on this adventure. Four months ago I got off the train in Freiburg, tired and nervous about the next four months in this city.
