Freezing Cold in Germany

Sunshine is almost gone. I should go walking today because we have sunshine. Due to some things that I need to finish, I was not able to do it. Despite the sunny weather sometimes in Germany, it is still very cold outside. I am just happy that we are not experiencing snow at the moment. Besides, I don't really need it now.During my three-day visit to Berlin last weekend, it was very very cold. It is probably caused by the wind coming from Siberian region.

Want to Print My Travel Pictures

I received a call from a friend last week asking me where do I develop or print my travel pictures. I told her that its been a long time now since I did not print any photos from my trips.

Living in Europe

I heard from some friends in the United States that living in Europe is quite expensive. That is true especially if you don't know where to find cheaper things. Actually, there are really cities and countries here that are very expensive. Probably because of the high standard of living. Taking for example in the big cities of Germany like Munich, Stuttgart and Berlin. Living in these areas is quite expensive. In Germany, health insurance is also a must. Unlike in the U.S. where you can buy private health insurances like Blue Cross NC....

Credit Card for Traveling

If you are a frequent traveler, I agree that you need to have a credit card everytime you travel. This is true especially in times of emergency. If you wish to apply for a credit card, you need to comply with some requirements like you salary print-outs, valid ID cards and any papers that a credit card company might ask or require from you. I heard a friend from the United States that you cannot rent a car if you don't have a credit card. They don't accept cash for that. It is quite an irony but it is true.I was forced to apply...
