In March, I made what I like to call a “Soccer & Space Euro Trip.” During my travels I had the outstanding fortune of being hosted by an awesome person from Couchsurfing.com in Dortmund, Germany. He showed me a different side of Dortmund that I wasn’t expecting — a walking graffiti tour!
I tried to group the different graffiti into similar groups. The following is how the post is broken up:
