... until it's "Pfiadi Bayern" and "Hello Vancouver". I'm quite excited, all my bags are packed (although way too full, as always), my room is (abnormally, almost terrifyingly) tidy, and I managed to get almost everything done that I had planned (always one or two things that I don't get around to). The tiny bit of my life left here in Germany got even tinier thanks to some serious cleaning out. I'm waaaaay more relaxed than when I moved to Welly. Partly because I managed once, so I know that I can do it again. Also, I already know people, have seen the university, the city, my flat, etc.
Summer finally decided to give me a nice goodbye performance: We've had temperatures over 30˚C and serious sunny days for almost a week now. Good times, seeing people one last time, hanging out in the sun, enjoying some nice beer. Hiking on Sunday left me pretty sore, but a dip in the lake afterwards might have prevented the worst. The last few days felt a little like the big summer holidays we used to have during highschool times. Not really having ANYTHING to do except one or two minor errands every 3 days or so, mainly chilling in the sun, drinking beers, eating ice cream and doing nothing, and being able to read something like one book a day. Can't remember when I last read one book a week, and more than that seems like it was in a different life. However, even though the slacker life is pretty amazing I'm glad that I can get back to work, have some routines and start thinking about volcanoes and other awesome geophysics again. *Nerd alert*
Either way, I'm off now. News from my new home will hopefully follow soon, latest after I get back from the US from fieldwork at some point in September! :)
