After arriving in Germany, I immediately noticed the prominence that graffiti has in this country. The graffiti here in Berlin is so different compared to what I am used to at home in the states. I feel as if the graffiti in Germany is prettier and has more meaning behind it. Everything, and yes I mean everything, is covered with colorful, random scribbles and words along with detailed, elaborate pieces by local artists.
Often do I find myself running to catch up with the group because I have stopped to take yet another picture of an interesting wall of graffiti. For some reason, the whole aura surrounding the practice graffiti just really interests me. I only wish that I was capable of producing something as beautiful as some of the pieces I have come across so far on this trip.

of South Carolina, School of Journalism and Mass Communications students and two professors are spending two weeks in Munich and Berlin Germany, as part of a May class. The object is to learn about convergence journalism and develop multimedia stories and communication skills that extend beyond the classroom. During this three-week class students will interview, write, photograph and video Germans and discover how different media's role is in this country.
