Hi everyone,
With a full summer, a promising fall semester coming up, and my parents complaining about my communication-skills. It thought, to keep things easy: I make a blog. And, to keep things even more easy: it will be in english.
So, I hope to post pictures and stories here, so that everyone where ever they may be in this world, can see what I am doing. And, most importantly, can tell me what they are doing!! Because if I am correct, you can post comments etc. So, I hope this blog will be fun for all of us.
Enjoy it,
