Sülfeld, Germany - 30th January 2014

Hello Mum,
I spent a nice time here in Sülfeld, but now it was time to say goodbye to Dicker Kumpel.
HolgiHH came and told me about my next host. He spent some time with her last year.
We had a big TV-hug!
Until soon
Matcha

Hey !
Today I arrived at Fabi's home, but not alone. Marmalade arrived at the same time as me. We met Jasper at her home, but had to say goodbye to him right away as he will go on his own travel again tomorrow.
I am excited for my time with Fabi and I hope we'll have a lot of fun.
Love,
Matcha

Hey,
today we got to join BlackCat for school and had a walk around her school.
On the first photo you can see her school. It's a really modern building. There is a park right in front of it as you can see on photo two.
We visited IKEA which is close to her school and on our way to the bus stop.
The Colloseum Theater is the place where they show musicals in Essen. It's a really lovely place and BlackCat loves going to musicals there.
The big round place is called "Berliner Platz" and is really chaotic for car drivers, at least I think so.
Limbecker Platz is a shopping centre which is kinda new (maybe 4 years old) and has all kind of shops.
The bear statue is for the "Berliner Platz" - Bär means bear in German and is spoken like the Ber in Berliner Platz. So it kinda symbols the place.
We saw the university (the colorful buildings) and an ambulance drove past us.
And last but not least we got to see the emblem of Essen.
A lot to see on our walk from the school to the bus stop.
Love,
Matcha

Hey,
we visited a friend of BlackCat this weekend and it was a lot of fun. She still had her winter decoration outside.
Her town is a really small one and we loved looking at everything. My favorite place actually was the inside of the church, which looks so lovely, don't you think so?
Love,
Matcha

Hey,
today BlackCat decided that it was time for me to get another life mission checked.
We went to coal mine Zollverein which is a UNESCO WHS!
We took a lot of photos there. Just look at them and I hope you like them. It was lots of fun to be there.
Go to this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zollverein_Coal_Mine_Industrial_Complex for more information about it.

We saw a pitman statue and some colorful graffitis, the house is the townhall of Steele (the part of Essen where we had the walk).

Hey,
today we went to the zoo. We took so many photos there, that it would be a hell of a work to tell you all the animals we saw, but I can tell you some of our highlights and you can look at the photos!
We saw the dolphin show, which was quite the fun. The koalas were really cute in my opinion. I also liked the Chinese garden. And at the end we were on a monkey island where the monkeys were running around free. That was interesting.
The other animals were all cool as well though. I hope you like our photos.
Love,
Matcha

Hey,
today we had a walk in the forest near BlackCats home and then walked to the water tower and then to Steele (a part of Essen) to take the bus home. In Steele we saw the church St. Laurentius. It was a nice spring day, so we enjoyed the warm weather and I hope you'll enjoy our photos.
Love,

Hey,
today I was at the main station with BlackCat and there was an exhibition about UNESCO WHS in Germany on stamps. So we took some photos with the stamps, so you can see how they look. I thought it was really interesting to see all those stamps.
Love,
Matcha

Hi mum!
After spending a few days to myself relaxing ( my new host Niki has been very busy revising for exams ) Niki was finally free to take some pictures of me and my newest friend Gozer.
We had some guests over for dinner so we helped Niki our making her favourite meal, sweet and sour. Niki has a taste for Chinese food, but prefers to make it her own way.
First we helped her brown off the chicken ( we didn't want anyone getting food poisoning!)
We then added the sauce. It was store bought, because Niki explained that she was hopeless at making her own!
We let it cook for a while before plating it up for our guests. Looks delicious!
Bye for now, I hope to update you soon!
