You need a saxophone?

Hello and welcome to my year abroad blog! In case you don't already know, next year I will be going to...

        NIEDERSACHSEN! (need-a-sack-sen)

Just to clarify, for the housemates/family who were very confused as to why I needed a saxophone/Saxon, Niedersachsen is a state in northwestern Germany. If you want you can call it Lower Saxony. And yes it was my top choice.

So, I could end up anywhere in the yellow area! 

For those of you who are not familiar with the whole 'British Council language assistant' thing, I applied back in December, received confirmation that my application was approved in April and got an email a couple of days ago to say that I would be placed in Niedersachen. I now have to wait for the German school to contact me, an email/letter which could come anytime from tomorrow to July. Wonderful.
