Matthias's Story
In fact, I'm from Berlin, Germany. But in spring of 1986 I participated in a school exchange program. My own and a parallel class from my school in Berlin (Gabriele-von-Buelow) spent two weeks in guest families in Longmont.
All of us were divided into three schools: Longmont High School, Niwot High School and Skyline (I think). I don't remember my host's name. He lived close to the public golf course and had a younger sister and a trampoline in their backyard. :) I went to Longmont High School, just as they did. I remember the sport teacher's name was Mr Vandermoelen. And I remember there was A lunch and B lunch. And Cherry Coke and Dr Pepper. But that sucked. :)
I remember Jennifer Eddy from Ni...Expand for more
wot High, who hosted my school time buddy, Frank Mueller-Witte. And I remember Susan Crowell who hosted my classmate Corinna Romey. We drove in her original VW beetle to a huge discotheque that looked like a castle in Denver.
Boy, that's so long ago. But it was a class trip I like to think back quite often. Some of you came to visit us in Berlin in return, in 1987. But I hosted someone else than the guy who had taken me in.
I still live in Berlin. I love the city, even more since the wall's been gone. I've been to many European countries, Canada, Middle and South America. I love the Baltic Sea, too. But Berlin remains my hometown.
Maybe some of you can remember our visit and get in touch again.
