This summer will be my first trip to Europe where I have been contracted to sing in the chorus of the Neue Eutiner Festspiele. I'm going to use this blog as my journal to jot down memories of operatic and culinary discoveries! I hope to one day look back at this summer and reflect upon what a remarkable opportunity I've been given! See you in 9 weeks America!

Laundry detergent
So I have been venturing into town trying to discover the best place to get a coffee, the best place to get a few groceries and other general knowledge of the downtown marktplatz. Among my exploration, I also had some missions of things I needed for my stay here:
Shampoo
Lavender Ricolas (which I still haven't found)
Laundry detergent
Dr. Hauschka
And a few other things....and it is surprisingly difficult to shop for things such as shampoo and laundry detergent when you can't read the text on the bottle. So I went with some generic German shampoo that was very cheap....I'm not sure if it is meant for a specific type of hair but It smells good so I'm cool with it. But I think I stood in the cleaning products aisle for a good 25 mins. I'm pretty sure the other customers thought there was something wrong with me. I ended up buying a tube called "Domol reise tube" which has pictures of modes of travel and says something that I think means hand washing....I haven't tried it yet so fingers crossed :)
In my exploring I came across the cutest cafe. It's called the Stadt Cafe and they make an amazing cappuccino. Not only the cappuccino but it so cute inside; there are several small rooms to sit in and a front patio, plus the "Kaffee Garten." The "Kaffee Garten" is a small garden patio outside hidden in the back, covered from view by a large tree. I wasn't able to sit for very long because I had to hurry off to rehearsal but next time I plan to sit in the Kaffee Garten and read while I sip :)
