I’ve been here for 46 somewhat chaotic days now. It took me a while to realize that Vienna, too, was a destination for me, and not anymore – or yet – the ‘home’ as which I liked to remember it. Nevertheless, the time to leave again has come. Daniel is already surfing his first waves in Nosara while I am writing this, and Burkhard will follow soon. Me, I’ll let my family in Tirol and Trentino have a final look at myself before I’ll board a United Airlines flight from Munich to Houston on route to San Jose on December 3.
