Tubingen, Germany
Unfortunately we were unable to get into the office early enough to sign up for our 31sq meter apartment somewhere around the university grounds. So we made our way to an overpriced, monopolizing hostel were we will retire for the evening.
Its lovely to know that we will soon have our own space, and a new routine with time to persue our own projects. Its been a monster of a journey, taking 3 months, and just about every mode of transport I could imagine. I've sure changed as a person, learnt new skills, experienced a plethora of situations, made new friends and read more books than my whole life combined, amongst nemourous other things.
To all those people who made our journey what it was, although you may never read this and many of you don't speak English, Thanks from the bottom of my heart. Without your suggestions, help, reassurance, smiles, friendly conversations I'm sure it would have been a lot harder, and less fulfilling. I welcome you to visit in me in my new home in Germany, or my homeland Australia and wish you good health and a fulfilling life.
Your slightly more worldly friend,
Nathan
p.s. A special thanks to all those random strangers who were drawn into our journey for a few frantic seconds as they helped us decipher our tickets as we ran to catch trains and busses throughout Asia and Europe. - You will be pleased to know that is three months of navigating foreign transport systems we didn't miss one long distance connection!!!
