Oktoberfest

Heather Buffo
October 1, 2013
This is one of the roller coasters at Oktoberfest. This is the entrance to the Oktoberfest festival grounds. This is one of the largest beer tents at Oktoberfest. "HB" are the intials for Hofbrauhaus and for Heather Buffo! My German friend Niko came from Hamburg to see me at Oktoberfest! This is inside the Hofbrauhaus tent at Oktoberfest.

I took an overnight bus to Oktoberfest and got to spend two days and one morning there. It was the best weekend of my life.

At Harvard she volunteers with CityStep, a community dance program for middle school students in Cambridge, plays club field hockey and lacrosse, and is a member of the Kappa Alpha Theta Greek-letter fraternity for women. When she&#39;s not at school, she&#39;s traveling as much as possible--Heather has been traveling outside the States every year since 2007. However, this Cleveland native is a homebody at heart and can&#39;t get enough quality time with her cats and a good, trashy romance novel.</span></p>
