1940

Guess who found out her distrikt! Rose did! haha :) I was really beginning to think that I would just never know... A few days ago my dad was checking his email while I was watching The Black Swan - good movie - and all of a sudden my dad just nonchalantly is like "hey you got an email from rotary here" and I immediately jump up and and am like "what?!" because I totally knew what this is about. Well, actually I didn't know what it was about, but I was really hoping it had something to do with my distrikt/city/host family.

The email turned out to be really confusing, it led me to this other data information fill-out type thingy that really doesn't help me at all, except for that my name, email, and host country were already filled out, and believe it or not, my host distrikt too! I couldn't believe it! Unfortunately, the whole email and links it gave me (another one talked about my insurance I need to purchase at least six weeks before departure and is super formal and legal and serious and stuff) were very confusing. I called a rotarian who basically advised me to wait another week to start stressing if I still haven't received any more information. I've been looking at some facebook groups, and other people are talking about getting an email like mine and no other information, so at least I'm not alone.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, my distrikt is in the North-East corner of Germany, the top part is by the ocean, and the eastern part of it is right by Poland.  Distrikt 1940 covers the States of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Brandenburg, Berlin and the easternmost part of Schleswig-Holstein. Here's a link to my distrikt's web page i think - http://www.rotary1940.de/distrikt/06_archiv/archifdatein/distrikt_englisch.php

Bis bald!
