Let me start with my day: Bomb Evacuation
I started this tumblr to try to finally capture some thoughts on this global life I lead (Germany, Ghana, Norway). So German life 2017-2018 laid bare for you all to see: my struggles, my ponderings, the daily nitty gritty.
Why start today ( I arrived almost 4 weeks ago): well because what saysĀ āWELCOME TO A NEW COUNTRYā likeĀ āget out of your house, thereās a giant undetonated WW2 bomb behind your houseā.
But no thoughts and prayers needed for me, the Germans have got it under control. Biked by a giant troop of volunteers escorting old people out of their apartments, shelters are available and sick people have special places to stay. Oh and the most prepared and nonplussed element of all: we got 48 hours written notice of this evacuation. No real worry of any imminent explosion.
Example of todayās excitement:Ā āSkateboarder breaks through evacuation barriers!! Takes 100 police to rescue/remove him from the danger zoneā
