I am Joonas, 7 years old, and I am living in Hamburg at my friend Jenny's. But after 7 years I want to see more of the world and I hope you can help me
I am about 11 cm large and my weight is 25 g. I am a small fire salamander and I fear that I won't grow any bigger in my life... But I think it is good for travelling
Here are two photos from me:

I hope to meet you soon!

I found a host for my first trip and I will start tomorrow to Linda in the USA. I am really excited to see a country so far away from my own.
Yesterday I walked around in Hamburg to visit some of my favorite places for I won't see them for a long time. My friend Jenny also took some photos.
First we visited the harbour at nearly sunset.
After that we went to the old St. Nikolai-Church. It is so beautiful although it was destroyed in World War II. The last thing we visited was the town hall of Hamburg.
Now you have also seen some places from my hometown. I hope you like it!
I am ready for travelling now and I hope to arrive in the USA soon.
Yours,
Joonas

One thing that was really cool with Epcot was that they had a German part of the world showcase.
The people that work in this area of Epcot speak German and are from Germany so it was very cool!

Budin and Lillibe have left and so today we decided to hang out in the pool. Andrea is babysitting twice today for 2 different families, one with an 8 month old and one with a 3 1/2 year old. She said she will bring us later so we can play in the backyard with the older boy. His name is Logan.
