Thursday Thirteen #2: Thirteen Cities

Thirteen Towns & Cities I Have Visited 1. Frankfurt (well, that's no big feat since I live in a suburb of Frankfurt 2. Mainz (work there) 3. Freiburg (I used to live in the Black Forest when I was a child) 4. Florence (during a summer vacation with my parents) 5. Siena (during the aforementioned summer vacation with my parents; Siena's church is striped like a zebra :) ) 6. Vienna (saw my first musical there, Andrew Lloyd Webber's CATS) 7. Prague (on my very last school excursion; the Charles Bridge at night must be the most romantic place on earth!) 8. Birmingham (during my teens I had an English penfriend who lived near Birmingham) 9. Oxford (oh, I love Oxford! Not only have they got a whole street full of bookstores, but there is also the wonderful, the magnificent Pitt Rivers Museum!) 10. Berwick-upon-Tweed (in the rain; you'll get to see it, too, in one of the next episodes of "Trials & Tribulations of a Travelling Scholar") 11. London (of course!) 12. Edinburgh (the City of Wonders) 13. Reno (in the month my first book was published, for RWA National 2005)
