Why Germany?

There are a multitude of D-Term trips offered at NCC and I chose to go to Germany.  Why?  Well half my family is German, I've been there a couple times and loved it (although I was very young and the trips are hard to remember), I was supposed to go back last Spring but the volcano in Iceland erupted canceling the trip and therefore I want to go all the more, I'm majoring in international business and getting a minor in German.  I've taken German in school for 5 years now and frequently speak German with my parents, sisters, grandma, and friends that speak German as well.  I'm very excited to go back to Germany (at an age where it's much easier to remember the trip) and experience part of the culture I have been learning about for years and try my best to speak with some of the locals in their own language.
