A new Friend This is my first Notebook entry. I am from California and I love living abroad in Munich. Its very different though. I do miss the California sun and being at the beach but I will go home for thanksgiving and that will help with some homesickness. I am so happy and excited to have a pet in my life!! She is the most adorable affectionate cat named peaches ( borrowing her from a friend because she is by herself a lot). I am not sure how to describe it here in Munich.... I definitely notice a lot more refugees on the subway and it get very grey here!!
