Ok, it's finally come, the last day of my trip. I have seen a lot of things in the last year good as well as bad. I have experienced a lot and learned a few things about myself too. That is unavoidable when you travel alone. Of course I shared parts of my trip with people I met along the way which is great but there are also moments when you are and feel alone.

I would like to thank everybody I met along the way. Thanks:

Paul, Sam, Fiona, Kobi, Peter, Romina, Romirulito, Andrés, Luciana, Pilar, Christian, Scott, Max, Jason, Vanina, Christian, Griselda, Gabriel, Camila, Sarah, Matt, Aaron, Amanda, Jade, Erin, Jack, Jenny, Mohammed, Marianne, Melanie, Leslie, Alice

Ok, it has happened; the last week of my trip has officially started. I will fly out to Singapore on the 6th and be back in (c)old Zürich on the 10th of April. I'm looking forward to seeing everybody again and catching up. Please let me know what the snow conditions are. Any chance of a little skiing before I go to Holland ?

See you all later!
