I can't believe it's been more than a month since last writing here! Since posting, I've moved to Heidelberg, Germany and am all settled in, nearing the end of my four week 'Sprachkurs' which focuses on my grammar, ahead of lectures beginning in October. The highlight probably is the 30 minute break in which there are coffee, pastries and rolls on offer. Yum yum yum!
I am already so happy here and hardly have a moment to myself, I've; done all the registering at the town hall, got a new SIM card for my mobile then had to get a contract, bank account is all up and running (just lacking the money!), bank details and address info documents have been sent back to my home univeristy, been to a hippy wedding reception, enjoyed many a good sunset sitting on the sofa on the balcony, enjoying brilliant Lebanese food and learning a little Arabic every day, been aching all over from boxing and keep fit classes and have also tried my hand at yoga.. I've bought a lovely bike with a basket and enjoy any excuse for a cycle, I have been offered a job, baked a chocolate and beetroot cake, seem to make friends with only Physics students, dream in German, love a good Heferweizen, got a haircut and my nose pierced! There's so much going on I've no doubt missed something, I really need to make it a habit to get back into blogging!
