Hallo! =) Wie geht es dir?
If i had to choose a country, it would be Germany. I've always thought that Europe is the cradle of many important cultures, science and art, but Germany has something special.
My family is related to Germany in many aspects. My mother is half german and half chilean, her mother was born in Berlin and her dad was born in Chile.
In 1973, my dad was having big problems with Pinochet's government, and he escaped to Germany. He always tells me that it's a great country and that if i had the chanche to visit this place, i shouldn't think it twice. So i have many reasons to choose Germany as my favourite country for living, travel, etc. But this choice is not only made with my parents comments and experiences.
When you visit Germany is like living history in places where it really happened. Ruins, monuments, concentration camps, etc. In 2009, after 20, 50 or even 100 years ago, the places kept their essence and you can reconstruct history and be part of it.
Many important scientists, musicians, artists and world leaders were german, so i think it's good to be in the country where all the things we actually know and study were created.
I would like to visit Auschwitz-Birkenau, a concentration camp, it was the biggest extermination centre in the history of nazism. Also i would like to visit the ruins of Berlin Wall, and go to the Oktoberfest and drink lots of german beer.
And the last reason: i love the german language. I studied german last year, but i didn't have enought time for it and university, so i had to leave it. But i can say my name, my adress, etc. and if someday, i had to be alone in Germany, i wouldn't be so lost and confused. So maybe i could finish german in Germany and not in Chile, it would be a nice and unforgetable experience.
That's it, i guess i wrote more than 200 words =)
Auf wiedersehen!

Hi Anto!
ResponderEliminarI`m totally agree with you, germany is an interesting country with a lot of history in it.
See you in europe!
kisses, bye!
Nice response Antonia,
ResponderEliminarGermany does sound nice--I hear they have good food and good beer! But the language sounds hard (for me, Spanish is hard enough). I was in Poland for a year, and we went to a couple of concentration camps. Not easy to see, obviously. But necessary so we don't forget.
A few grammar things:
"I sholdn't think twice": no need for the "it"
"When you visit Germany 'IT' is like..." Here you need the "it". If that doesn't make sense, ask me next time in class.
"...the Berlin wall..." You need the article before the noun.
cheers
