Yes perfect I love that picture! But yeah, I'm really excited to see how these two bounce off each other, since no two Germanys are exactly alike.

And unfortunately I can't, because I'm entering the fourth of a four-week program that takes place in Hessen (Marburg, to be precise), I haven't been able to head over to eastern Germany at all. :( I really wanted to but with coursework and planned-weekends from the program, it just proved to be impossible.

But yes, studying! German language and European-Arabic relations at the Philipps-Universität Marburg. I saw that your timezone is European -- are you German/speak German? Because if you do, I have to apologize in advance for how poor my German really is.
