  • I was on a recent trip to magnificent Germany a few weeks ago and I had an opportunity to stop by Giessen, Germany where I had lived for four years as a kid.
    My time in Giessen on this trip was very short but I am very grateful for my time spent in the early evening and early morning in Giessen.
    Have you ever been to Giessen?
    Have you lived in Giessen?
    Are you originally from Giessen?

    This was so nice, Darion! Isn’t it amazing how there’s a castle like that right in the middle of everything? I mean, you don’t have to drive for miles to see something like that. And German train stations are so cool with great bakeries right there! Looking forward to your next video, just saw the scheduled release date!
