Anyone Who Goes TRAVELling Has Stories To TELL
@stories 'bout extraordinay stores
Yesterday, Franziska and I went to a store labelled 'ChristianLife Store'. Its surface was about the size of the Konsum market in Alaunstrasse in Dresden Neustadt, approximately 500 qm ... You could find anything in there. Books, music, bibles, crosses, even slipcovers for your own personal iPod, baby's clothing, shirts, preacher's robes, stickers, pins, altar bread, postcards, lady's handbags, badges, letter paper, jewellery, cups, pens, ... What is it that makes those items fit into a Christian store? It's as easy as that, add a cross or a fish (symbol for Christianity) or a crown (daughters and sons of THE KING) to it, that's all you've got to do. I'm aware of the fact that we also have those stores in Germany; but as it is the case with everything here, there is nothing smaller than XXL, not even stores.
@stories 'bout cars, again
Everybody has his or her own car. Even if you only lately turned 16. However, those cars are not 'beginner's cars' we would have in Germany. It's all about the size of Chevrolet and Hummer ... Are Americans actually familiar with cars such as Renault Clio?
@stories 'bout dorms
I can't do anything but advise you (who live in dormitories) to get the doors of your apartments decorated!!! Accepted colours: pink, silver and violet. Accepted items: hearts, flowers and a female power ranger dressed in soft pink. PS: Don't miss to have your memo board attached to your door so that you will not miss important information your friends want to tell you.
@stories 'bout edibles
I guess that I could lose half my weight if I were to stay here in the states. Food is nice, but greasy and in the South, in particular, anything is fried. After some time, I would have a hard time trying to ignore that I would be longing increasingly for some 'real' food. something nourishing and fresh, some ordinary cheese and affordable vegetables and fruit. ... Of course, we have stayed in a dorm and did not have a kitchen and have only sojourned here for a couple of days ... But I assume that it would turn out to be rather difficult finding a shop that sells organic food ... Over and above all that, no wonder that people with low-income are not able to afford fruit or vegetables as the basis of their daily nourishment. Just imagine that: I paid $4 something for 5 apples ... Consequently, it stands to reason that only few people will keep to this 'fancy food'.
