Exploring Germany

with Cole Dunajski

Home: Welcome

Information about my Trip

Since middle school I have had an interest in the German language and culture, and because of that interest I took classes in the subject all throughout high school and my time at college so far.  I go to the University of New Hampshire in Durham, NH and am currently enrolled in their 4-year program, majoring in Mechanical Engineering and German Language.  This summer I have decided to study abroad in Berlin as part of my University's "Berlin Program".  During my time in Berlin I will be documenting my travels, encounters, and general experience in Germany.  I hope to make at least a few posts per week here as a part of this blog.  Thank you for taking an interest!

Closing Week

Some pictures of the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, first used during the Olympic Games during Nazi German rule in 1936. Next, a picture of a Koi pond in a beautiful German park, and finally, a picture of an amazingly well preserved ship from the 1700's.
