Hello and Welcome to Nothing Ever Happens in Canada, but we know this is simply not true! I'm Canadian Girl, thanks for joining me today on this bonus episode, for our first international adventure!! Grab your passports and some warm clothes as we take off to discover a true crime Canadian adventure overseas. Our flight takes us today to the famous Bode Museum in Berlin Germany where a 1000kg or 220lbs solid Canadian gold coin was stolen in the middle of the night by a group of young men.
Join me now as head across the pond on our very first international adventure.
