Work Work Work. This week was a little hectic. I did some more work on the electronic insurance, finished editing the website, did more translating and got a new project. I also went into Dusseldorf with a collegue to write down more of the company's server hardware and things. There has been a lot to do and a lot to keep me busy. I am really interested in my new project. I have to create a business plan as to how Tourism and Congress can try to reach out to American companies and integrate with the US tourism market for business meetings. This area of business is totally new to me and I really look forward to learning more.
I've been getting close to one of the interns here. Josefine and I go to my place for lunch almost every day since I live only five minutes from where we work. Thursday she took me to Köln to experience some specific Rheinland culture: Karnival!
People dress up like we do for Halloween except the costumes are all funny and creative. I ran into Wilson from Tool Time, saw american football players, tons of cows, pirates and Josefine and I went as and angel and a devil. We went down to an old bar with her boyfriend and her boyfriend's best friend and got right into the celebration. Köln was CRAZY that night. I couldn't believe how many people were out and about! It was a great night. heres some info on Karnival!
