A country I would like to visit

GERMANY

I would like to visit Germany because part of my family was German. One of my uncle-in-law was German, second world war veteran. Exactly for that reason I want to know more of his culture and the culture of my cousins, because all of them tell us stories about this country, and I want to see it in first person.
About the things that i know about Germany, mostly is about the second world war view on the side of a German soldier, not to the Jewish view like the most people know the story. Other thing that I know it's about the food. My aunt, wife of Friedrich, my uncle-in-law, travel to Germany and there she learned so much about the gastronomy. They eat like animals jaja talking about portions, but they eat really good food. The flavors on these serving are so strong, so much ferment, so much fat and so much beer and bakery.
I would like to live there for a short time, around a year, to learn these language and maybe work teaching spanish meanwhile know the country. There are so much history, so much culture and the opportunities of expanded my knowledge are so bigger. Perhaps from there travel to other countries, like Netherlands or Norway, even do a tour for Europe.
