Diana Elle Blog

So, I've been here for 5 months 10 days approx and I still only know very little German, I know around 100 words but with those I cant make out a real conversation.. I know how to say stuff but if i get a response I cant respond back.. :/ so we borrowed some kinder bücher  from our landlords so I can read them with Avi and learn more! :)  Source The one I was reading yesterday was “Die kleine Raupe Nimmersatt [the very hungry Caterpillar]” and when I read it the first time Pablo said he only half understood me.. which means.. I totally didn't read it correctly :/.. so today, I found a video of the book in german . I will be listening to it and read along and learn the pronunciation..  so far I think it's going good..  Here it is: Die kleine Raupe Nimmersatt Von Eric Carle The Very Hungry Caterpillar Nachts, im Mondschein, lag auf einem Blatt ein kleines Ei. In the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf....

One thing I know i'm going to love about living in Hamburg is that it is easy to move around Europe. Our first trip has been booked, we will be going this Easter break to visit my friend Carmen in Holland! we are going by train, taking advantage of the highly developed rail system Europe has. I will put another post up after the trip to tell you how it went! Until later, Diana.

One of my favorite things to do while working is listening to music. I enjoy doing this online, I choose a radio station and listen to it, I get local news from a different part of the world depending on what station I listen to.  I've been doing this more and more lately, especially at work, it helps the day go by faster and it keeps me motivated. There are so many new songs out there, I've compiled a list of the top ten songs I keep hearing on repeat. and I include the lyrics to  „ Just Give me a Reason “ by Pink Ft. Nate Reuss, since that is my favorite song of the moment! Right from the start you were a thief  You stole my heart and I your willing victim I let you see the parts of me that weren't all that pretty And with every touch you fixed them Now you've been talking in your sleep oh oh Things you never say to me oh oh Tell me that you've had enough Of our love, our love Just give me a reason Just a little bit's eno...

As you can probably tell I've decided to start a blog, but I don't think I'll be writing a lot just a few sentences here and there. Talking from a family of 3 on a student budget's point of view. They say it is recommended to keep a sort of diary while abroad, and this is how I will be letting you know how we manage to live our everyday expat lives with limited funds. A little about me: My name is Diana.  I am currently 24, a stay-at-home mom to Avi (3), and Wife to Pablo. I graduated with a degree in International Commerce last semester, and I need to learn German so that once I have work permission I can get a good job. I'm new to the English blogging world (I've had my blog Unos Regios Viajando for a while) and i'm always open to good advice. I am currently doing an internship in online marketing and today's blogging topic is what I am currently doing at work, #LinkBuilding. It has to do with marketing, even though that is not what I studie...
