Eight Months On

FINAL POST

Oh, the truth in the saying,

'Where one door closes, a window is opened.'

This freeing, inspiring, thoughtful, motivating, exciting, educational, beautiful, memorable Erasmus year is coming to an end. Tomorrow I fly to Oslo to start the journey to the Arctic with WWF (read more here) and if I am honest, my head has already left Berlin.

I've been reading, learning, thinking and writing so much about Climate Change and my future activities that I have let slide my previous hopes of visiting every museum in the city, seeing more of the state of Brandenburg and all the other plans I had on my 'to-do list'.

But Berlin has found a special place in my heart. I have grown so much here, and I am so thankful for the friendships, opportunities and fun that I have had here.

So if my head has left, my heart remains.

In the sunshine-filled parks where everyone mingles happily, in the street art which make cycling and walking exciting, in the stress-free atmosphere and the delicious cake.

If you ever go to this marvelous city - send me a postcard?

Thanks all for reading,

Casper
