Broadening my horizons–a trip to “the old country”

Filed under: life in Japan, travel reports, English entries, 翻訳業 — admin @ 15:12:49

A mid-summer suggestion from my sister is about to come to fruition! I’ll be leaving in a few days for my first trip to Europe. My sister (Iowa), niece (Moscow) and I (3 guesses) will be converging from around the globe to meet in Frankfurt Germany. I have a plane ticket (which I paid for at a Seven-Eleven and printed out at home) and directions to a youth hostel that say: “We are located in Kaiserstrasse, directly opposite the front of Frankfurt main train station (Hauptbahnhof). Underground S8/S9. Stay & Learn Residence of Language Alliance is 100m on the left–There’s a big white flag hanging from the balcony of the 2nd floor, so you can’t miss us.” Here’s hoping they don’t decide to change flags for the holiday season.

While I’m away, the second-in-charge will be answering the phone and responding to e-mail.

It will be interesting going to a foreign country where a lot of the people look like me and some of whom I might actually be related to!
