A Few Thoughts on National Identity
I spent a good chunk of my adult life researching the concept of national identity. I was particularly interested in how German national identity is manifested in various forms of media, such as film and music. So I suppose it was with a sense of having come full circle, that I found myself sitting in a room with about 15 other people yesterday taking the German citizenship test.* I think all of that needs to be properly unpacked, but not just yet.
For the moment, here is my musical offering for the day. Suffice it to say that her performance of the German national anthem gives me goosebumps. Simply beautiful!
Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit
für das deutsche Vaterland!
Danach lasst uns alle streben
brüderlich mit Herz und Hand!
Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit
sind des Glückes Unterpfand:
|: Blüh im Glanze dieses Glückes,
blühe, deutsches Vaterland! :|
*I'll get the results in about 8 weeks . . . thanks German bureaucracy!

Two weeks are gone just like that. I'm absolutely going to miss Europe now that I'm home but getting to visit Germany, France, and Austria was a treat.
I did a lot of 'firsts' on this trip. Flying in a large airplane, seeing big cities up close and personal, taking the subway, viewing the mountains with my own two eyes, leaving the country for the first time, being in a place where the main language isn't English (although many people were bilingual), trying authentic schnitzel and black forest cake, and flying by myself just to name some. It's definitely been quite the whirlwind of an experience and I'd absolutely do it again in a heartbeat even with the jet lag.
I wouldn't be able to tell you what my favourite part was or my favourite place that me and my fam stayed at. The whole trip was quite the time. The people were super friendly, the places had their own unique charm, and even the food was to die for.
I'm sure I'll have more photos to post within the coming days considering I took about 1500 of them.
Cheers!
