synopsis, or not really

After a long hiatus, I’m back… moved into my flat in Bielefeld, Germany and all..so far so good. Gonna be at uni tmr. For a really long time, I haven’t been going to a “proper” uni. I cannot seem to remember what waking up early to go to class feels like. It has been an awesome 8 months though. School is overrated ppl. Education isn’t. bear that in mind!! Nvr let school interfere with your education.

Travelling around Europe is absolutely fab! No doubt there has been some troubling times but the good outweighs the bad. And in life, that’s all that matters right? Good memories overshadow the bad ones. Where do I begin? This is gonna be a long one…
London of course. Now I truly understand why ppl fall in love with that city. It’s difficult to get bored there. There’s so much going on all the fucking time. I’m going back end of april to collect the rest of my luggage that I left there cus it was overweight for budget airlines. Anyway, that’s beside the point. I really want to go back to London again. This time around, I want to go up to Cardiff to meet some tss ppl I missed out the last time. So I’m planning to skip a few days of classes for that although I got a strong feeling there’s something impt going on during those dates I bought my flights for but I’m sure I’ll find a way around any exams or other responsibilities. I’m always good at that. Heh. Honestly, London was about meeting up with old friends besides sightseeing. Getting all drunk/high/tipsy together was hilarious…acting all silly like old times…that’s what I call a reunion!!! Watching a west end musical made the 5 days much more memorable. The lion king was a superb performance. I couldn’t blink an eye for fear of missing out some detail. Love love love it long time.

Morocco: I made many interesting friends and it was hella great. Ppl are friendliest here I would say. The honest truth? I only chose to go to morocco to see Dounia, one of the best friends on tss. The camels, donkeys, desert, medinas were all second choice reasons. So I was perfectly happy if I did nothing all day but just hung out u know. And staying with her family was a cultural experience. Their eating habits, guest etiquettes were all new to me. I even went to a public bathhouse…which included every single person being naked and being scrubbed down by another naked lady. But seriously, I felt so clean afters. Like every single dirt on your body was washed away. I had some deep, intense conversations with dounia on some nights. We walked in the freezing cold (cus it was up in the mountains) talking and reminiscing, while the stars were the brightest I’ve ever seen in my life. The perfect setting. The moonlight and stars lighting our way. The warmth of our hearts rid the cold weather. It was one of those moments where you find out how much u mean to someone and that life is worth it afterall.

Barcelona- was all about alcohol and having a great time. I would want to live there if I had the chance to! The art scene is amazing. The rich history, the architecture and simply, how beautiful the city is. I took my time taking in the sights and the sounds, I really hate rushing u know. What’s the point of seeing everything if you don’t get the chance to feel and be absorbed into the surroundings? Here, I learnt how to make mojitos and be warned, I am good at it! We (me and Jarle) made it a point to drink as much as our bodies tolerated every night. Haha. I felt very at home in barca really, yes, come on now, even when I wasn’t drunk/high ok? I really love that city. Actually, I reckon it’s actually a tie between here and London. It’s a tough decision to pick my favourite place there.

Paris: city of fucking romance. Heh. Gorgeous city. I would have loved it even more if I spoke French. The pastries were amazing though. I think I put on a kilo during that week. I partied with joshabel and virginie and their friends. It was great! More red wine and alcohol to torment my poor body with. I vowed there that I would detox for a week in germany but of course, I failed miserably, just had a beer and a few fags while having dinner and watching green street hooligans which is btw, a very very good movie. Everyone should at least watch it once. Go rent it, download it, borrow it, whatever…just go watch it!!!! Ok back to love-ly paris, on the last day I managed to spent a few hours with NENI. And he is always great fun. So witty, sarcastic and funny. I loved every second of it!!! Wished I had more time in Paris really.

Prague- was not part of the itinerary but after minimal persuasion, I decided to fuck it and waste a couple of hundred to change my plans. Yes, cus I was pretty sick of sightseeing and all. My only plan for Prague was to hang out with awesome friends and catch up. Just chilling and bumming around, which I do best. Hah. A few cuppas, some beer, furthermore green beer, some killer absinth! Arggh. And of course the trusty nicotine. I dun think I smoked so much in a day before. Hah. And drunk all sort alcoholic poison all at once. So much for easter and holy week and being good huh? Ahh well…good times outweighed the bad. So I’m all happy and dandy with wasting my money. Needless to say, I met more tss ppl and Gabriel + Michal always get me wasted. Just like that. My eurotrip ends and I’m in Germany.

Short synopsis of the trip which doesn’t really say much. The thing is, I cannot sum up one months’ of travelling in 15 minutes. Maybe the next time we meet, I’ll let u in some anecdotes. I had super fab time and that’s all that matters. P/s: also to let u know I’m still alive and kicking; albeit totally broke. Which is good cus I live in the middle of the shopping streets. And trust me, ive checked some of them out and I’m super tempted!!!!
