ENGLAND
I've been doing some scouting of my allocated German town, and its one hell of a lot smaller than I'd anticipated. To give you a scope of just how small it is, you can read all about it at this most informed website here.
Yeah.
By contrast, my current village, although quaint and picturesque and a lot of other 5 dollar words, is still fairly uninspiring, but has twice the amount of people and probably more square miles. How is this possible? How has Neuerburg qualified for town status when it has less than a Yorkshire village? Sure, it has a 16th Century castle and a plethora of other artistic gems, but we could have had those anytime if we'd wanted.
The websites also market Neuerburg as a haven for those who enjoy hiking, biking and riding, of which respectively I get gradually worse. Other than that, there's dancing and German folk music.
Oh, and its a CDU-run area. They better not be religious.
