Finally, my last post from Germany

For the last time for at least four months, there's going to be a post from Germany. Well, not so much a post but a postie ;)

Tonight I will be heading to Calais, then take the ferry to Dover and after a short break there, I will drive the last few miles to Bath. Most of my room is in brown boxes right now, which is kind of sad to see. I had to get rid of so many things I thought I would keep forever (e.g. my small collection of whisky bottles). Of cause you can say "it's only for a year", "you'll be back", "nothing's gonna change in this short time" of stuff like that, but that's not exactly true, everyone knows that.

I tried really hard to write down everything I want to take to Bath, and all the things I have to do once I am there, but I am sure I have missed something, hopefully nothing to important. I'm always thinking "remember to pack your ID", "remember you need British money" (which in fact I do not have yet), "remember to pack your charger" the list continues infinitely.

It's going to be a long drive for me and my dad, especially for my dad, because he has to work today.

So, yeah, that's about it from Germany, I'm giving over to myself in England (very soon)

Good Bye!

Oh, yeah, and I've installed Skype (ID: chris.in.bath) feel free to add me.

fun news

Since I now have my new address, I was able to look up the exact distance between my home, and my new home, and it's just amazing since it is 477.6 miles. I guess that was a pretty good guess.

I won't change the name of the blog though.

Cheers!

It's getting serious

I am only 11 days away from departure. But it is getting harder each day. I guess you only realize what you have when your about to lose it. Don't get me wrong, I am really really excited to go to Bath, and live there, but it's hard to leave my dear friends, and my family behind for nearly one whole year. The last week was amazing. First my short trip to Hamburg with a friend was legendary, the following day just wonderful, die days followed by that where superb, and I guess I am losing myself in adjectives..

I would like to take at least some of you with me, but that won't work.

Still, let's go back to some interesting news: Most of my room is in brown boxes already, but I have no Idea where my bed and my sofa should go. I wrote a list of things to do and things to pack for England, and it has gotten huge. I bought a nice Senseo, so at least I'll have coffee in Bath, that'll be good. I met a friend yesterday who is going to the UK for studies as well. We talked about problems that might occur and things we should not forget. It is a good thing to know, she's in England with me, even if she is 110 miles away.

I am hoping for lots of visits from you all, and you can take that as an serious invite.

For the next few days, I have to install Skype, especially on my mom's Laptop, and that's about it. Minor tasks like packing, clearing out my room, finishing with all the bureaucratic stuff and so on will be done shortly before departure. I am just hoping not to forget anything important in Germany, but anyone who knows me knows I will. 

I'll try to see you all one last time, stay tuned for more information on my farewell party and especially for my first post from the United Kingdom, of cause.
