The furthest I traveled this week was to a city called Cologne, which is about 36 miles away from Essen.
Aside from when I came to Germany from my hometown, the furthest away from Essen I've been is to Berlin, Germany's capital, which is 284 miles away.
This week, I've mostly taken the train to get to where I need to go. I've also walked a lot, but I prefer the trains.
Cologne is always a lovely city to visit! I discover new places each time I go.
At the end of the week, I'll be going to a brand new city that I've never been to before called Paderborn. I'm excited to see what there is to offer there!
