Heres what i wrote to my exchance students lately
When i think about the Bergen experience it will definetly be the people that made it a special one for Mark Folkers. I miss you people very much.
Im sure for most of us who were at Klubben really enjoyed the proper way in my opinion to say goodbye. Having Fun, not rushed, lots of hugs, lots of well chosen words and writing.
But what was very unexpected was the goodbye the germans and i were blessed with on the evening of the 31st. It was so nice to see everyone come out. It was special. And you broke me when i was convinced i was in no state to be broken. The suprise emotion is a wonderful thing. So... thank you.
Hers a marky update
I will be traveling around for the next month. A unlimited rail pass really gets you moving around in Europe. I am with my friend Matthew who i have been traveling all year with and we are currently in Hamburg Germany with a ticket to Munich tommorrow with plans to go to Rome the next night. We have very few plans as my travels will be broken up with family affairs out of my control.
... to those who know me..
My mother joined me in Austria, which was very unexpected.
To anyone who knew about it, my grandmother did not get better.
I saw her for the last time on Monday. It has been an awkward. I am pretty numb from the whole thing, i dont really know what to do in this situation. Im more worried for my mother and the pressure and pain that she must be feeling right now. Im trying to give her all the support that she will let me give. But thats all i can do at this point. Thanks for the support everyone.
So far on My travels with Matt we;
Hit hamburg
Hit Munchen
Currently In Rome
Goign to VAtican
Going to Venice probably soon
My grandmothers passed away on June 7th 2005.
Her funeral is on June 14th, Burial on the 19th.
Ill be in Villach for those events most likely, to be with my family.
Apparently even my dad is flying over to help my mother cope with all the legal stuff that comes with such a family happening.
Lets just call it that then.
Im not into sightseeing right now, tho i will continue to a bit.
Im absolutely aching for some lounging and boat cruising and stuff.
Im in for some very relax vacation ish stuff, i mean i should do what feels good on a vacation right, not go see random monuments endlessly right?? anyways.
Hope your all doign well at home.
Didnt have time to send this off last time so post i will
