Celebrating New Year in Europe Christmas Day was passed and I was ready excited about New Year! In contrast with my Christmas Day experience, this time was going to be my second time celebrating New Year in Europe. My girlfriend and I was planning to visit some friend of us in Germany, Actually, they are friends of my girlfriend. I met them in Mexico, including my girlfriend. We were flatmates by pure coincidence and we created a really beautiful friendship while we were living in Mexico. All was already set up, we were going to arrive at Wuppertal, that because it was the centrical point to all. We left our place on 30 December in order to avoid the potencial traffic jam could have happened. We needed around 5 hours driving to arrive but the time just passed really quickly. When we finally were inside of our friend's house, we celebrated the Birthday of my girlfriend. Yes, she was born on 30 December. We took some drinks and eat some sandwiches that were kindly prepared by the owner of the house. It was a really cozy small party, we were just 5 people, we talking mainly about my experience of living in Europe. Also at that moment we had to make up our minds about where we were going to celebrate New Year. There were two options, to stay in home and celebrate there or to go to another places, friend of the owner of the house. The problem with the second options was that, except for the owner of the house, we were going to meet new people and the plan was to have a small party just for us. So at the end, we decided to stay in home and celebrate there. I eat around 9:00pm and afterwards we saw a very popular tv program that is transmitted every year just before New Year. Then we went outside to see the fireworks for a while and after we returned to home to make the Mexican party! :) We danced, some latin songs like Salsa, Bachata, Cumbia, etc. I't was an awesome moment, It reminded me the old time in Mexico with them. It's was not the super crazy party, but it was just what I wanted. Spent time with my girlfriend and our friends.
