BBQ at the beach and Good Byes

Sunday 22nd - 23rd of June

After my unwanted long sleep I walked to "my flat" and took a shower. After that we had brunch like in old times in the flat of Ole and Hauke. With pancakes, of course. Since we only had two days in Sweden, and only this one with all together, we planned a bbq at a beach next to the sea. We bought a huge amount of meat and drove with two cars a few kilometer south of Sundsvall. The beach we chose was nice and empty. You could walk very far into the sea there. Like in my old holidays. It was an amazing feeling to stand that far in sea only hearing the sound of the water and the birds.
Although it started to rain a little bit in between, the weather remained reliable and dry most of the time, but we did not really see sun anymore. So we grilled the (a lot!) meat, played frisbee and had funny time. After the meat was eaten, we made a big camp fire in the sand and waited until all the wood has been burned. That was a Midsommar event like I had imagined - even if it was not Midsommar anymore. Because it did not become dark, we did not really know how we stayed. The evening we had a sit-in at Ole's place again.
The night was short. Very short. After only 2 hours of sleep we had to say Stefan good bye. After another 2 or 3 hours we had breakfast with Christian and brought him to the train station, too. The rest of the day we played the memory game I got from the exchange students as a present when I left Sundsvall in February. Maritha, Ole and I drove also to Södra Berget for a walk, but the weather changed to rain, so we only enjoyed the view over the area for a while. Back in Nacksta the weather turned again to sunshine after one hour, so Marlies, Maritha, Ole and I made a walk through the Nacksta woods. The evening ended with a sit-in again. The night was meant to be short again, because our train was leaving at quarter past 6 in the morning.

I tried it already once in February, but changed my mind. But now finally I am that tired of writing a blog for everybody, that I quit it. It's more a principle thing I am tired about. Thanks to all (both) responses pushing me to continue my blog a few weeks ago, but it really does not make sense anymore. For the few who liked it, we are in contact anyway (excl. mijn anonieme vriend van Friesland; ik denk dat je anonimiteit moet opgeven, als je verder informeerd zijn wil: facebook, hyves of een biertje indien ik kom naar Friesland - en deeze keer mer conversatie dan alleen "hi" ;-) A bit statistics: this blog has 53 posts in 14 months. Most visitors came from Germany (798), Netherlands (732) and Sweden (210). Keyword that was used most to google my blog: "officina del mare brescia" (I think, earned another free dinner for good publicity, hahaha). Anyway, I had some new ideas for the blog the last days. More back to the roots, because in basic this blog was supp

EILC 2008

In the end I want to publish something that might be of special interest for those who spend the EILC 2006 with me in Härnösand . Midsweden University officially has an EILC 2008 this year!! EILC stands for Erasmus Intensive Language Course. In 2007 Miun skipped it. The old EILC 2006 page is deleted and new site of this year's course is http://www.miun.se/eilc/ . Looks quite similar to our starting page two years ago. Only Björn is now Johanna (check personal staff). And they could have at least published new pictures from Hans and Ella. The new course is going to start in 2 weeks. If I imagine I would have stayed in Sundsvall as first planned, I would welcome the EILC students on their Campus trip... funny. I had no idea when was at their place . But since I only linked my pictures at that time to Hans EILC page, I have to repair my articles from August 2006 now, because all pictures are lost, of course. Luckily I saved at least those from the blog somewhere. But does anyboday h

Almost master

These are my final days as student, for the trip to Sundsvall was a success. When Ulrich (surprise-guest) and I arrived in Sundsvall on Friday evening, it was too warm for snow and the streets were clear. But during the presentation next morning, it started to snow. Since then I have been in a snowy winterland. The weekend was beautiful. I somehow passed the presentation, I just need to make some corrections. Because of holidays it will take until February until I can apply for the master degree - until I receive it, it may take weeks or even months of bureaucracy. Anyhow, it is nothing that needs much effort, but patience. Sundsvall is pretty much the same like last February. They reconstruct the outdoor swimming pool to a kind of adventure pool and the campus at the university gets a new building. I was able to do everything that I wanted to do: A lonely night walk on the tiny paths in the woods while it was snowing and visiting Norra Berget and Alnön again. Sandra and Ulli have th
