Life in the US

Hi guys, I hope you are all doing great! Yesterday, my girls threw me a Bridal Shower that went beyond any expectation I ever had, so I’m definitely in a good mood <3 But that’s not be the topic of today’s post. It has been six weeks now that I left America and my life […]

So here it is. It’s time to say Goodbye for good now. Goodbye to a year full of challenges, adventures and inspirations. Goodbye to a country that became my home for a year. Goodbye to the people that accompanied me on this journey; some did it for months, some for a few weeks, others only […]

Last year in August I left Germany and moved to the United States of America for a year. It was a rough time of goodbye’s and hello’s, of tears and excitement. Sure, I was infinitely grateful for the opportunity to go and live in the U.S., however, it meant a long time apart from the […]

Hi dear friends, it’s time for a new update about what is going on here on this side of the Atlantic Ocean. As you already know from older posts, everything here is huge. The cups, the cars, the bottles, the jackets, and so are the weather changes and temperature jumps. This week we went from […]

Ciao miei cari amici! Come state? Tutto è bene? Please, don’t be confused, it’s still me! ☺ But we’ll come to that weird beginning in a moment. First, let me tell you something about this past week here at Illinois State University. This week was incredibly colorful and sweet, starting with International Cultural Night – […]

Hi guys, it’s me again. Today I would like to talk to you about funny and interesting things I encounter on the streets, about strange products you can buy at the supermarket, about people’s weird habits I observe. In one word, I would like to tell you a few things about (my) America. 1. I […]
