Posts that never get published

Time to say goodbye
24.03.2015 I’m finally sitting in a plane to Japan and I feel both sad and elated at the same time. I just had to say my last goodbyes and that really wasn’t easy. But let’s rewind a moment and take a look at the last weeks. Before I could get really started with the apartment…
