In these first two weeks it was merely arriving in this beautiful country and trying to settle. I still have the feeling of “I have to do something. Go go, don’t waste time” in me. And it’s hard to get rid of it after years of functioning. So it seems that I have to start …

“You have to make a stopover in Sydney! It’s my favourite city in the world.” I can still hear the voice of my brother in my head after I told him about my travelling plans. I have been told a lot of tips and stops that I „have to do“ since I talked to people …

My last day at work. And I’m leaving being very grateful for the time and the people. Thank you to all of these chances and encounters. And now to “Hello, adventure!”
While my intercontinental trip will start on Sep, 9th, I still have some smaller trips to soak in confidence and good memories before. Escaping the hot days in Germany to take a deep breath in the coolness of Ireland was one of these “take a chance and say yes to adventure” things I was forcing …
