Work in Europe for 13 months..

"Work in Europe for 13 months" - That was the headline of the Craigslist add that I applied to in June 2011. Just four months later, I said farewell to Seattle and arrived at my new home in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany. While here, I will be working at Edelweiss Lodge and Resort and traveling throughout Europe...

Hiking the Kramerspitz

On June 18th we hiked the 1982 meters to the top of the Kramerspitz!





Taking a break on the "saddle"

View from the top!













Joel at the top!




There was a herd of sheep living at the top of the mountain








Such a fun day! The whole hike took us about eight hours..with plenty of stops on the way up and down!

Rothenburg ob der Tauber

We took a weekend trip to Rothenburg ob der Tauber, a walled-in medieval city in Bavaria.



Walking along the wall that surrounds the town




This clock in the center of town commemorates the mayor who saved the town by guzzling down a liter of wine!












This Asian lady had no shame taking her own picture all over town!

On the Night Watchman tour




Chinese food in a medieval German town.. makes perfect sense!
