In my last post I have already alluded to my many activities. The last week was mainly occupied with another favourite of mine: travelling.

I started on wednesday, leaving Aachen with destination of Trier to see the Wise Guys, a German a capella group. On the way I met with Tanja in Bonn and the rest we travelled the rest of the distance together. The concert was very good. They really know how to entertain their audience.  The same night Tanja and I had to return to Bonn (she had to work the following day) and to Aachen respectively (I had to attend a lecture in the morning). Fortunately I had my brother’s car at my disposal for the return trip.

On friday I had to return the car. I drove to Bonn first, picked Tanja up and we went to the Saarland.

Saturday morning my dad brought me to the train station and I travelled to Freiburg to visit friends. We had some nice Döner Kebab and afterwards we walked in the Black Forest and enjoyed the views and the nature. In the evening we had beer, home made food, more beer, some nice conversation and more beer. To round things, we went out to have some beer and finally we had another Döner Kebab. The next morning we breakfasted, talked and walked Freiburg – marvellous weather included. (Pictures soon on flickr).

Then I had – of course – to return to Aachen. When I had reached my room in Aachen, I did some quick calculations: all in all I had travelled a mere 1516 kilometers (946 miles) in 5 days.

But I can tell you: travelling really is investing in your education. I was very entertained during the concert and I was very happy to meet my old friends (from school times) again. This weekend was definitely a good opener for more “friend-meeting” in mid december!

Woof woof!
