Hooray for the internet.
11 Jun 2013 03:36 pmI googled my host sister from the exchange program in 1992. (Ben is shocked that I remembered her name. It was fairly unusual!) I found her on facebook and sent a friend request, and now we're catching up.
I was cleaning up my desk/office, and I found the DM5 note I thought I'd lost forever, plus a 100 Czech korun note and some Macedonian money (which a guy I met during a layover in Ferihegy airport en route to Athens in 1996 gave me; at least I think that's where it came from). I've now consolidated all the random foreign change I have floating around.
I was inspired to look up my host sister from finding a Frohes Fest postcard she sent me inside a box of assorted postcards, notes, and papers from college. I also found a set of watercolor postcards my high school BF painted(!) and mailed me when his family went to Germany.
We had another pair of girls from Schifferstadt in our house, when their church choir came to Frederick on a tour and sang at our church, but I can't remember their last name. They were sisters, and maybe I have their last name written down somewhere, on the back of a picture or something.
