In the meantime, after leaving Zürich, me and my three friends drove to Singen, the current hometown of one of our group. His internship is still continuing and thus he had to go back to work. Before we dropped him off, though, we drove partway up a nearby hill and climbed the rest of the way up to the ruined castle of Hohentwiel. We spent a few hours climbing around and enjoying the view.
After leaving our friend, the other three of us headed over to the Freiburg area. My co-traveller Marcus had two host families during his internship, and he had left his baggage (along with that of my other co-traveller) with one of the them. We went to visit both; one gave us dinner and the other drinks. That was a rather fun. Then we made the final leg of our communal journey to Stuttgart, but by the time we got there it was dark and late, so we walked around the shopping street for an hour or so, I ate my final falafel, and we went to bed.
At four in the morning, I woke up, carried my baggage downstairs, caught an U-bahn and then an S-bahn, and waiting for my flight in the airport. After a long journey through London and Chicago I finally arrived in Kansas City, complete with my baggage. Not too much interesting to report about all that.
Well, this will be my final post here. I have no idea when I'll be back to a German-speaking country, but I assure you that it will happen eventually. In a year, we will see where things lie. I have really enjoyed all three of my travels to Germany and Austria and I don't think I'm done yet.
For now, I'm still occasionally writing reviews for my other blog, and I'm trying to record my third album before I have to go back to school. Let me know somehow if you want a copy when it's all done.
Thanks for reading!
