Summarizing Life in Germany in 30 Tweets.

You can squeeze a surprising amount of information into 140 characters.

I’ve used twitter for several years, but my use of it changed once I made an account for my blog.  It became a quick, easy platform for sharing my life in Germany with other bloggers, expats, and curious travelers.  I looked back over everything I tweeted during our year in Germany and now I’m sharing the best and most informative tweets here.  I tweeted about what we learned, dealing with homesickness, some of my favorite German jokes, and all the confusion we encountered as expats (there was so much confusion).

This was in reference to our impromptu trip to Gemünden am Main.

This was certainly one way to deal with homesickness…

A wonderful, crispy, gloriously sandwiched in Brötchen necessity.

I felt like a criminal every time I opened a pack of water or soda in the store – but I promise it’s okay!

Ah, the Deutsche Bahn.  Like many Germans, we eventually learned to hate it a little bit.

 
 
It’s hard to believe it’s over, but at least I’ll always have the tweets (and memories)!
