"Rostock : The Beautiful Harbor City" (My First Trip in Germany)

Image
That was my first time to have a trip in Germany, and also first trip with my host family, The Rickensdorfs. Rostock is the hometown for my host mother, Petra. She grown up there with her sister, Sabine, and also her family. FYI, Rostock is the largest city in the north German state Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Rostock is on the Warnow river; the district of Warnemünde 12 kilometres (7 miles) north of the city centre is directly on the Baltic Seacoast. Rostock is home to one of the oldest universities in the world, the University of Rostock, founded in 1419. The city territory of Rostock stretches for about 20 km (12 mi) along the Warnow to the Baltic Sea. The largest built-up area of Rostock is on the western side of the river. The eastern part of its territory is dominated by industrial estates and the forested Rostock Heath. Rostock is considered as the only regiopolis in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
