After completing the first official day of this Collaborations, Cars, & Commerce study abroad in Stuttgart, I can’t help but feel excited for what we will see in the coming days. With this being my first visit to Europe, I was intrigued by the differences in the cultures of Germany and back home in the United States, with some examples like businesses closing on Sunday’s as well as the fully integrated train system throughout the country. Our tour guide today, along with the assistance of Dr. Tanoos and Dr. Jones detailed the history of the city and the elements that make it great. Overall, this is shaping up to be an enriching experience.
