Epiblog

So that's the end of my year on mainland Europe. I'm back on the island. Not much to say, except that all things considered, it was a fantastic year. I spent the last few weeks first with Jacopo in Merano, then with Jenny in Munich and Berlin. Finally, Dan came with me to Genova to hang out for a bit while I closed my bank account and took care of other matters. He also generously leant me his baggage allowance so I could get all my stuff home. There are a few pictures from that trip here.

I really enjoyed my time in Italy. It's a country which seems quite comfortable to conform to its stereotype, i.e. very beautiful and permanently in chaos. It was good to get back to Germany for a few days at the end too. I can definitively say, after hard, dedicated research in 10 European countries this year, that the Germans produce the finest beer in Europe. Or possibly the Belgians..

And that's the end of the blog. Thanks for reading, get in touch soon.
