A history buff cousin can not just stop to rave a bout Germany. When we were 10 and eating ice cream, what he boast about was this historical aristocrat country. When we were preparing for college, he was not yet over with this obsession. The irony of it all I am going for Germany for a two months gap year before entering college then.

Maybe his obsession rub off itself unto me that is why when asked for the destination of a gap year and sort of holiday vacation I did not hesitated and blurted out this country’s name. Well, with hours of talk and information from this history buff cousin I seemed to know Germany like the back of my hand.

With history: Yes I was filled with it and it will be solidified with the actual visit of the places. Yes, three months from now and all the necessary papers, from the insurance to Germany destination are already ironed out. I would like to share some destinations that I am planning to visit in my Germany travel.

Munich is a good place to start getting to know Germany. It is a sophisticated, large business center with variety of museums, galleries, world class symphony and packed with lost of activities to do. The best castles are found in Munich city.

Augsburg is also another side of the German country that has a collection of wonderful churches, pleasant location and good food. It is one of the famous romantic Road.. A city named after an emperor- Augustus and the oldest city in the history of Bavaria thus offering so much for history buffs.

I also would like to visit other specific destination such as: Roland Statue and Bremen town Hall, St. Peter’s Cathedral, Bremen Town Musicians statue, Hohenschwangau Castle,Neuschwanstein Castle,Brandenburg Gate,Reichenau Island and Mainau on Lake Constance and Zollverein coal mine.
