November has been a very busy month and has gone by
so fast. I ended my November with a daytrip to Cologne in Germany. I’ve never
been to Germany so it was another tick off my bucket list. To be honest the
trip was not at all what I expected and it turned out to be more fun than I thought
it would be.
So my day started with getting up at 6am and getting
dressed to catch a bus to another bus. Luckily two other Au pair friends went
with so I wasn’t alone. It was a 3 and a half hour ride and instead of
sleeping, we talked the entire time (well two of us). The first sight was the
Dom, a huge cathedral in the city centre. Usually the city centres are very old;
this wasn’t the case in Cologne. There were still some old buildings, but not
as many as other places. This was due to the World War II bombings which
destroyed most of the buildings. This didn’t stop the city from having
character and beautiful sights. We joined a guided tour which helped us see more
of the city and learn more about the history.
Being in Cologne felt a lot like being in Belgium,
except for the language difference. It was nice to see a different part of Europe
and I’m definitely visiting Germany again soon!
