Berlin, Germany

Germany

Berlin, Germany is amazing! The sights here are so gorgeous like the Wurlitzer Park. The parks are just so amazing beautiful and clean. Unlike some parks that people just throw trash on the ground! But in Germany the parks are so clean and well taken care of!


Unlike other parks and sights here in Germany, are so different then sights back home in Maine where people are just to lazy to pick up there own garbage! But in Germany the people are just so kind to there sights and use their resources better than the people back in Maine!


My home in Germany is just so welcoming but my family is just so kind then normal they are treating me like I am part of their family in Germany!


Like, for example, my new mom Julia who is 30 years old! Who is just so kind, even though me and the others have to do chores because she doesn’t want to spoil us to much with her yummy cooking or being to nice and giving us what ever we want like she normally does! But then it comes to her job, which is a computer specialist!


Then their is my new dad Jorg who is also 30 years old but he is the opposite! He doesn’t like to spoil us with yummy treats! He is more of the “lets go outside and play some fuseball (soccer) or a good game of basketball” type. And if we do have a basketball or fuseball game we will be outside for like about 2 hours which is not normal for me! But most of the time he is at his job as a air traffic controller! Which is like supper amazing cause he loves to buy us children new things!


Then there is my almost sister that I never had back home! Lulu is 13 years old like me! She loves to do almost every same thing as I do basically. She loves to play her volleyball and basketball! And she is the most funniest person I have ever met always making people laugh like me and my friends usually do back home! But she is like me in many ways! She likes the same American bands that I do! In away I somewhat consider her as my actual twin!


Then their is my other new sister Gabi which is only 8 years old and she is also our little sister who loves basketball pretty much like the rest of the family does! But she is also the most carefullest person I have ever met, she is like cautious in everything that she will do! But then when it comes to learning she is very serious about learning, unlike her classmates, sisters, or brothers!


Then their is my new brother Max who is also 13 years old and when it comes to play basketball with him you have to fight back cause he is very serious when he plays. But he loves to be around his friends!



Lulu who I share a room with right know is like three times the size then my room back in Maine. The walls are a blueish color with two big windows, probably the size of a small car! And everything in the room is like oober awesome, comfy, and blue!


Me and my new family live in a house with like 20 rooms but they turned a couple of the rooms into 2 more bathrooms so we didn’t have to wait long and so we didn’t have to go to the other side of the apartment floor that they own! Even though the whole floor that they own used to be a whole bunch of small hotel rooms! All I can say is the floor that they own is very welcoming and cozy!

  1. Dear Angel,
    your blog entry, Berlin, Germany, was amazing! It sounds like you are having a blast there with your family and touring around Berlin and seeing all of the cool parks and sites! Germany must be beautiful and it sounds like from you that the community there keeps their parks and city very clean and presentable! I think that is great! I wish people in Maine would do the same, don’t you? Your family seems very welcoming and giving to you. That’s awesome! :] Hey, that’s really cool that you are playing basketball down there with your new family! Must be fun! Are you beating everyone with your awesome American b-ball skills? LOL! I think it’s great that you have a “twin” that likes the same bands and stuff you do! It’s weird that you can have a twin that is exactly like you anywhere in the world! That’s wonderful! Here back in Maine, it’s very hectic in school and busy, busy, busy, with basketball, but we are doing great! I can’t wait until I hear some more amazing information on Germany and how you are doing! I’m glad it’s going great!
    Your friend,

  2. Karli,

    Basketball is amazing here in Germany! And yes I am kicking butt at basketball here. The only thing is some of the rules are very confusing and different! Also I joined their basketball team. But my some what twin Lulu has to teach me all of the German basketball terms. Confusing like their plays and the terms that the refs use I have to learn. So I am thinking about just having Lulu teach me the whole language!
