My mentor got me last year and we thought it would be awesome to travel around and spread the word and make people more aware of all the good they can do!
I hope to visit lots of kids and Cancer treatment centres and hospitals and camps and everything else and bring a smile to everyone's face!!!
My mentor showed me some lovely pics of a sister JBF Bear which were sent to her by a wonderful woman named Chevaughn Joseph who is the President and Co-Founder of the Just Because Foundation!!!
Sister bear got to visit a camp for kids with Neuroblastoma in Northern Ontario, Canada!!!
Look, I've posted the pics for you all to see (see below)!
I'm off to Portugal first to my mentor's dear friend, Helder who is going to take me on vacation with him!!!
I'm so excited to start!!!
See you soon with photos and stories when I arrive!!!

Bruchsal, Germany - 9th March 2012

Surprise!?! I'm with fam-united since today. She really had to search for me in the member list, because she didn't remember, that I was on the way to her. She's getting old, but I will help her to think of everything, that's necessary, when she has guests.
Bye, JBF Bear

Mannheim, Germany - 10th March 2012
By: fam-united
Today we were invited to celebrate our host uncle's 80th birthday. We celebrated at a Greek Restaurant close to the Rhine. In the early afternoon we went on a walk to have a view on the Rhine. Both, the Rhine and the Neckar flow through Mannheim. Mannheim is a nice city, Petra told me, but she had no time to show more than the Rhine.

Bruchsal, Germany - 22nd April 2012
By: fam-united
Finally I found time to read these two pages of two different newspapers of the week. The one is about Bruchsal asparagus. Bruchsal is famous for its asparagus fields and auctions.
The other newspaper page is about the baroque palace of Bruchsal. I think, you have a good view to many different parts of the main building with the church tower, but still many houses are missing.

Trier Petrisberg, Germany - 28th May 2012
By: fam-united
Because my host's parents in law are older people, we had no chance to have a walk in Trier and see all the sightseeing places really close. Her father in law sits in a wheelchair and her mother in law needs a walker, so it is too difficult for them. Nevertheless we took the chance to take a look at the sightseeing places from a place called Petrisberg. It was a bit difficult to take photos, though, first my host didn't have her own camera, second we had the sun against us and third either I or the landscape was sharp and so we had to zoom in some parts to give you a closer view on some places.
Trier is the oldest city in Germany, founded in or before 16 BC on the banks of the Moselle. Trier lies in a valley between low vine-covered hills of ruddy sandstone in the west of the state of Rhineland-Palatinate, near the border with Luxembourg and within the important Mosel wine region.
The city is the oldest seat of a Christian bishop north of the Alps.
With an approximate population of 105,000 Trier is ranked fourth among the state's largest cities; after Mainz, Ludwigshafen, and Koblenz.
You can take a look at the link. My host says, that she loves Trier and that you should come and see it, if you get a chance to visit this part of Germany.
We will go and see St.Matthias in the late afternoon.
I'm really sorry, but we also had no chance to catch a short view to the most famous Porta Nigra, because you can't see it on the photo above - it is just too small as you can see on the zoomed in photo.
