So this is just going to be a short post about my love for Graz.
I'm not really a city person, I like to visit them, go shopping, see a show, eat out & whatever, but I prefer living in smaller towns in the countryside. Obviously this has a lot to do with growing up in the country where we had to drive for 20-30 minutes to get to town. I remember when I was younger I always thought that I would want to live in a city when I was older, and I have lived in larger towns and cities, but I've found that I prefer smaller towns.
However, if I ever were to live in a city for a longer amount of time it would be Graz. It's not a huge city, but it's certainly big enough, and there's always something to do, or somewhere to go. It's a really beautiful city, and I feel very much at home here. Of course this probably has something to do with having studied here, so I know my way around pretty well, but I love coming back here and I can see myself living here.
I just got back to my friend Kristin's after meeting up with my friend Babsi (who I worked with at Waldsee, and is now doing a semester abroad at Uni Graz) and taking her around town showing her some of my favorite places. It's cold and snowy here, but not as cold or snowy as Baden was when I left. I've never seen Graz with snow before since I was here during a warm winter, so that was new and beautiful. Other than that it's just been seeing a lot of the same familiar sights, and I love it. I'm not sure what exactly I'll be doing the rest of the weekend here, but we're making lasagna tomorrow night (a few other friends may be joining us), and I'm having breakfast with another friend on Sunday- so I'll be having fun!
