The Bloggers of Bavaria

So, it’s not surprise that I’m a little bit obsessed with my blog. Not only this blog but various other blogs all over the place that I either read, write, or contribute to. This, of course, is the best one. And I’ve been blogging for a long time – way back before it was even called blogging, back when LiveJournal was still cool and I had a bazillion Internet friends and no tangible social life. Ha. Now, things are a bit different and blogging is actually considered cool because everyone does it. It’s a bit narcissistic, I’ll admit, but everyone loves to talk about themselves so it’s a great venue for that. I could go on forever about all of the blogs that I love and read on a daily basis. But I won’t. What I will do is send a massive shout-out to my real life friends who are here in Munich with me, sharing the experience of living in a foreign city and we’re all blogging about it… together. So, you get three bloggers from the same city, sharing the same social circle, writing about most of the same stuff, but all living three completely different lives with very different experiences. Put these two on your blog rolls, add them to your Reader. I give them both 5 stars and 2 thumbs way up!

You’ve all heard my stories about Jessica – the first official friend that I made in Munich (not counting Helen because I already knew her).  She’s in the city doing an internship position at BMW. We’re both college grads – she’s just a step closer to her career goals. I’m the lazy one! Her and I have grown so close over the last two months and we’ve had so much fun together. My time here in Munich wouldn’t be half as interesting or exciting if I didn’t have Jess around to keep me company. Her and I are friends for life now, there’s no getting out of that. She went with me to the hospital at 3:30 in the morning while my foot gushed blood! She’s my girl, true blue sistahs. So, please, read her blog – love her blog – and enjoy!

Eric is my newest friend here in Munich but he’s definitely one of the best. I love that I can already say that about him! We bonded over the 22-hour misadventure to Neuschwanstein and now there’s no getting away, he’s here in Munich for a year, just like me. He’s in Munich studying at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, some crazy subjects like Latin and classic literature or something. I’m telling you, these British people are so much more interesting than us boring Americans. Yes, that’s right. Eric sounds like he came straight out of a Harry Potter film and you know how much I love that. Now go read his blog and love it and enjoy.

This is awesome you've found other bloggy friends in Germany! Love it. And I share your views on blogging as well, in some regards it's narcissistic but there are so many positives to it that outweigh it!
