The break down at the waterfront seemed to be not good for my internship. I have been freezing cold the whole day, dizzy and my system didn’t like to run again. I got anxious to have Malaria or any other strange virus, so I got myself into the internet cafe and booked a flight for the next morning home.

Here I’m - Home again - I feel much better now, seems to be no strange virus. May have been a combination of food poisoning and home sickness / friend sickness. But still dizzy from time to time. Let’s see, what the blood test is telling, guess it’s just a hypofunction of something.

I’m sad, that I cannot do my internship now. BUT: Looking forward to have now really time for you, my friends!!!

Hear you! See you!

My first week in Cape Town had been full with things, that didn’t happen ;o).
Monday should have been my first working day - unfortunately my boss had been sick - so I signed for a month contract at the gym, to be able to run again

Tuesday - my boss still sick - I enjoyed the swimming line in the gym and the bike

Wednesday - this had been a great day - I met my boss and we went to the customer (Cape Town Government) for which I should work the first month - very nice and friendly people - I’m sure, that will be a great time and I will learn a lot, as they use nearly each module of SAP and are a big team

Thursday - Women Day - international holiday - I booked yesterday 2 tours, to be busy this day - the people from the township tour didn’t pick me up, after one hour waiting I have been nearly frozen - went to the Waterfront to the Aquarium until my second tour, the Robben Island Tour should start - Cancelled ;o) - the sea is to ruff - ok, I went back to Long Street into my loved internet cafe and made later a stop at Lola’s, a Restaurant/Cafe at the corner - they saved my day - nice music, nice people and good food

Friday - this morning I did the township tour, I went this time to the tourist office, to meet them there, just to be sure ;o) - the guide had been very aggressive, tour was ok, but not as expected - in the afternoon I just went to the gym again and picked up the USB Stick with some information, that I can study at the weekend for my job on Monday

Saturday - I’m getting very bored and feeling extremely lonely - I decide to go on my own to the Table Mountain, hopefully I find some people, who I can join - unfortunately the weather had been very bad, just meet some people coming down, who all said, that it’s dangerous to go on my own - so I went back, and asked them, if I can join them the next time - www.clag.org.za is the key … - so I went to the waterfront to the cinema - Reign on me - a very good movie, but sad, which hadn’t been good for my mood - finally Elro, my flatmate took me with him for the evening - that was good, saved my day! - we went to a good Thai Restaurant and later into some Clubs

Sunday - today is my Robben Island Tour - I’m going to Waterfront, to go to the Aquarium upfront - my blood pressure don’t likes me to move any further, I feel dizzy, go to a Mexican Restaurant, eat and have 2 cokes, but it does not help - makes it even worse - now my stomach is also striking - I call Elro to pick me up - the rest of the day I’m just sleeping - it’s not getting better - I have enough and just like to go home, I really need to go home and see a doctor and be not alone

I have had some conversations about: Beeing rich. Beeing happy. What does this mean for you?

I had already several night mares, that I will miss my flight to Cape Town, and won’t see Matthias. But finally, the car didn’t get broken, and we came back in time to our base camp at Lidwana Lodge. I started packing and got all my stuff and curios into my bag ;o) … I’m happy to leave. It had been a great time, but also a long time, not to be with Matthias and will be still a long time not to see all my friends. … This last evening we went to a restaurant and had a great “good bye dinner” with some music (done by a one man show), disrupted by some power breaks ;O). …

The last night had been horrible. 2 of the guys in our dorm did a snore championship :o) … but worse had been the strong stormy wind!!! … I couldn’t sleep the whole night … roofs have been blown away … I thought, that’s it, now I cannot go to Cape Town because of the wind … … at 6 in the morning the wind had been still strong, but not as bad as during the night. …

Time to say good bye to all the friends staying behind ;o( … hope I will see one or the other again!!!

I have been very excited, the wind, my driver came to late, we had to stop at the petrol station to get some fuel, …. But finally everything went fine. We started later, arrived later in Jo’burg, I had to hurry, to get again my luggage, go through the  passport control, go to the South African Airline desk and check in for my flight … I just didn’t Q and so I got my flight. … Cape Town - overcast - the bus took us to the baggage reclaim … and here waited already my Matthias - still the same, great feeling …

Max from studentsgoabroad waited for us and drove in front of us to my new ‘home’ for the next 2 month. … We packed quickly for our week holidays and left Cape Town to go to Hermanus. Here we stayed for 2 days, had delicious seafood, wine and the great sea! Than we drove to the Bontebok National Park and after that to the wine region, to Franshoek. Here we stayed again 2 days, did a great guided wine tour and on Thursday we drove back to Cape Town.

The last days are gone so fast. Sadly Matthias left Cape Town early this morning ;o(. … My first day alone since a long, long time. I went to the botanical garden, to the planetarium, which had a great show today about the current night sky, walked around, and stopped now for some hours in the internet cafe … thinking on you!!!
