24 Reasons for Learning German – Walking in the Alps

Advent Calendar Day 8

Today’s post has been written by Hannah. Thank you, Hannah!

I had to do two years of German lessons at school but languages were not my strong point and I dropped the subject as soon as I could.  Several years later I visited Germany for the first time.  I spent a fantastic summer in Munich.  The weather was great, the people were great and the food was great but above all the trips to the Alps were amazing.  I love hill walking and I would like to move to the Alps if I won the lottery.  To this end I have attended various German courses on and off for the past thirteen years.  I have used my very basic knowledge of German on business trips and also on walking holidays in the Alps.
