ROA – ATL – JFK – Semester is over.

Monday, December 15th, 2008

Sitting at Roanoke airport about to go to JFK via Atlanta.
My semester abroad at Virginia Tech is over. 5 of the best months of my life. I can’t and don’t want to summarize everything I did during the time but it was a blast!

Thank you: to all the wonderful people I met and the good fun we had. I am looking forward to meeting some of you guys in February in Europe. Thank you: to all you great Americans who I probably won’t see for a good while. The Oktoberfest offer is still valid! :-)

This blog will stay open for the next probably quite turbulent year and my master/phd/trainee years. Would love to hear from you guys from time to time! Cheers. Simon.

The clock’s run out, time’s up over, bloah!
