Scared of the Light

The past couple of days have been awful since our plans of getting home by 23rd December shot to hell. As you may know, the biggest airports in Europe have been a big mess lately because of ice and snowfall (everyone from Finland you may laugh now).

So yesterday we decided to cancel our flights through Heathrow (the worst situation was there of course) and buy new flights from Genève, Switzerland, to Finland. So tomorrow we take a train first to Genève and then fly to Riga and from there to Oulu. I just wanna get home already.

Packing has been quite a pain in the ass today. Luckily we could borrow a scale from my dear French friend and could decide what to take and what not to take. I had to leave 8 kilos of stuff behind - which means that I'll be seen in Lyon next spring! Yay!

All in all it's weird to say goodbye because I've been gone for such a long time and living here feels like I've always been here. I shared the best moments with the Finnish gang and all the Atlantis and Erasmus people and this definitely was an opportunity of a lifetime, even though it didn't always feel like that (strikes, riots, traffic jams, buses that didn't run because of snow, bureaucracy, stupid French people etc). But what I'm always going to look back on, will be the awesome people I got to meet here from all the different countries, the friends I made, the places I saw, the concerts I went to, shopping at Part Dieu, the parties we had (especially our house parties) and all the funny stupid things that we did and got to encounter during our stay here.

Thank you for everybody who read my blog during my time here and please stay with me a little while longer while I finish and publish all the entries that I haven't yet had time to post here. It's been awesome :)
