From Maputo to Berlin

So... Here is a quick little update on my journey from Maputo, Mozambique to Berlin, Germany.

I cried my eyes out on the plane to JHB. I think the airhostess thought I was crazy. She asked if I was leaving forever and when I told her that I was only leaving Maputo for 2 weeks she looked very confused. I realised on the plane how tired I was of leaving Maputo. I was overwhelmed at the thought of leaving my new home. But I get to go back this time. In 2 weeks I go back home to Maputo!
JHB-CAIRO
After aa long flight next to a man who spoke about sci-fi books and politics within science fiction I was SO ready to get off the plane... I think I would love Egypt. 4 hours in the airport gave me a taste of an amazing culture I am very eager to explore.
CAIRO-BERLIN
4 hour flight with very special attention from the egyptian flight attendent. Very funny. Egyptian men are not the most subtle with their flirtation tactics.
BERLIN
I am confused at the trains and buses and how they work. So many rules about where you can walk, how you walk and THE CARS COME FROM THE WRONG WAY!
Its a beautiful city that I cant wait to explore. I think i might have to rent a bike with a basket on the front and ride around.

Will update more soon... Such a blessing to be here.
