Kristina's Traveling Circus: June 2007
http://kristinastravelingcircus.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 13, 2007. This past weekend was quite inspiring for my future travels. We visited the Pauls in North Carolina for Laura's graduation, which gave me the opportunity to talk about what I will be doing until I see them again in December. It so happens that when I return from Chile, a day later I will be back on a plane to the Grand Canyon to celebrate Christmas. For Germany, I plan on attending the FU-BEST program.

Kristina's Traveling Circus: January 2008
http://kristinastravelingcircus.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 31, 2008. Every-other week, Luis and Verena, the FUBESTs student assistants, set up a "Stammtisch" for us. Stammtisch doesn't have an exact translation to English, but it basically means either a table reserved for the regulars or a reservation that a group has on a certain day. In other news, I am going to Leipzig tomorrow and staying the weekend. However, the BVG (or metro-transit of Berlin) has decided to take a "Warning Strike" starting at midnight tonight and lasting until 3 pm...

Monday, July 21, 2008. While my dad was in Berlin, in between being in Sweden and flying home, we decided to take a day trip to Dresden. Yet again we used the "Schones Wochenende" ticket, which got us both there and back for 35 euros on the regional trains. As we saw when we were on our way, most of the people going to Dresden were tourists taking a day trip from Berlin. Dad outside the Radebeul Ost train station, the adventure begins]. Dad biking to the winery we found.]. We walked up a very long stairc...

Thursday, April 17, 2008. On Tuesday, we got up early for a tour of Copenhagen's harbor and canals, on a short and wide boat that could go under all the bridges. The tour started in Nyhaven, or the new harbor, which is actually a cute little canal with lots of old boats and houses. Annie, Jessica, and I on the tour]. Outside of the Church]. After having seen guard changes in various different countries, I expected something at least a little bit exciting. However the Danish guard does a process that ...

Kristina's Traveling Circus: March 2007
http://kristinastravelingcircus.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 8, 2007. Berlin was quite the experience. I didn't know really what to expect: students I didn't know, a new city, and missing a week of school. In the end, it was absolutely amazing. I was too busy to even write this! We stayed at the Circus Hostel in the old East. It was really nice and clean, and apparently used to have a really cool bar in the basement, but it was closed for renovation. However, there was lots of nightlife everywhere, so it wasn't like that was a problem. 5) Schloss C...

Monday, December 31, 2007. The Inka Trail Days 1 and 2. Our group of 13 starting the Inka Trail]. After we had been driving on the bus for a while, we made a stop in Ollantatambo to go to the bathroom and buy some snacks. Although I had bought some trail mix and cookies in Cusco, I bought some candy bars too. Although the candy bars were good on the trail, I brought much to much food, since they feed you three extremely good meals everyday on the trail. In my awesome red poncho on day 1]. After dinner, i...

Sunday, June 29, 2008. Our first excitement was on Wednesday night, when Sweden had a soccer match in the European Cup. We were all rather disappointed when they lost. A whole suitcase full of American food in the front, and all the other packing]. Maribeth and I slept most of the car ride so we were ready when we had to take the boat across to the island. Helene driving the boat, apparently something was funny]. Maribeth and I waiting for dinner]. Cornelea playing in her little pool]. Maribeth, Thomas, ...

Kristina's Traveling Circus: May 2008
http://kristinastravelingcircus.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 31, 2008. Paula in the water]. Although I wanted to sit in the sun, those spots were in the premium, so we took a sort-of shady spot where it was easy to get in the water. Paula jumped right in and threw Charly (her Beagle) right in with her. He didn't really appreciate it and kept trying desperately to swim to shore. Once there, he rolled around in the dirt. I guess to try and get dry. Eventually I got in too, but it was pretty cold with a gooey bottom. Paula and her new guest, Mary].
