The End
Hello dear followers,
This might just be the last message Im posting to this travel blog. I finished my research last week and had a very good final chat with my professor. I got a really good evaluation. I went to San Francisco for the last time yesterday, ofcourse I had a great party. And today Emile and me had our goodbye dinner and invited all our Berkeley friends. We had 40 people in a Thai...

Hello dear people at home
I know it has been a while since my last message. For me time flies though. The other day someone counted my remaining number of weeks for me and I really didn’t like it. So Im not going to tell you right now :)

San Francisco photos & research started.
Sorry, I didnt complete this the other day. Here the SF pics (of different trips) which I selected for you.
I am doing very well by the way. The only pressure I have at the moment is that I have to find a new place to stay within a week or so. Since the International House only accepts full semester contracts. I guess most of you know about it since this was temporary from the start. Housing in...
Spending Dollar after Dollar
Hi everyone!
Its Sunday evening and a good time to drop some pictures on the blog.
Tomorrow I will start my research. I met my prof and colleagues this week and they showed me around and explained the projects that are going on. So at this point I don’t have a lot to say about it, but I ll explain my project when I really do know it myself :)
I spent the days exploring and partying. Both...

Goodbye Party
Thanks everyone! I had a great night last Thursday and it was awesome that so many of you showed up. Also, thanks for the little (very useful!) gifts I got!
The next day I actually felt a little sad. :) But well, time will fly by and other people say goodbye for much longer periods - so I should be able to handle it ;)
Sooooooooo, this is my blog! Filipa helped me setting this up and since I...
