Since I was in California for such a long time before I moved here to Munich, I got used to all of the options that I had for shopping. When I came here to Germany, I had a big box of things shipped to myself from the US with supplies like deodorant, supplements and other random things.

It takes getting used to (in my opinion) to have so many fewer choices that you do in the US. But of course there are things that make it more than worth it living here.

There is always good and bad every place you live. I think its always best to try and look at the good!
