I said goodbye to some old friends (Jon, Ted, Ian, Sean, & Ted´s Cousin Dan) in Watford with a meal at my parents on Wednesday night. As I am only home for a day before heading off to the Middle East, I thought I would say goodbye then.

I´m now in Mannheim with Robin:Singapore exchange. Heidelburg this afternoon had a fantastic castle and beautiful riverbank surroundings and glorious sunshine. Zurich was great, and Robin and Dag:Singapore exchange drove back from there to here yesterday. 13 of us from Singapore made it to Kathryn´s place for a fun weekend of reminissing, chatting, eating and exchanging stories from the last year and a half. (Geoff, Kathryn, Jaque, Robin,. Dag, GuoLiang, Dawn, Darren, Marie-niege, Marine, Erika, Samuel, and Gavin) Lia also came wh oI met in Nicaragua last year and wh olives close by to Zurich.

future: Tomorrow I will go to Berlin and then onto Copenhagen on Friday to meet Eileen and Martijn. In December Ill be having a New Year Party in Edinburgh, fri 31st Dec. all invited, please email me for more info.

Tschüs,

John
