Thank you Dublin!

Yesterday I arrived back in Dublin and it was such a nice day. First my brother drove me to the airport so therefore I didn't have to carry my luggage. We got there really early so there were no people and I didn't have to queue for check-in. Then a very special person joined me for breakfast and we spent my last hour in Switzerland as well as his last hours before his last exam together-thank you very much for that, I really appreciate that!

Once on the plane I enjoyed seeing the sun for two hours after a week of pouring rain in Switzerland. It took me a moment to realise that the sun was still shining when we touched ground in Dublin! The sky was blue and spring was in the air :-) However, my luck didn't end there. On my way from the bus stop to the student residence a handsome young man asked me whether I needed some help with my luggage-no doubt, I must have left Switzerland and entered Ireland, people are so much friendlier here!




After having dropped off my luggage, I left with my room-mate, Petra and a friend of hers to do some sight-seeing: Guinness brewery! The view from the restaurant at the top was astonishing but I still don't like Guinness so I only took a few sips...


Today we went to do some shopping (very busy day for my credit-card: shoes, books and a (rain) coat)...no comment for the shoes but I am proud that I didn't buy a hand-bag especially as Petra did..

Tomorrow we will head back to school and spend less time with shopping, I promise :-). School reminds me of something or rather someone :-)). Here is a picture of my "Strategic Management" teacher, the famous and well-known Kevin (a Spanish girl at the student residence, who does NOT study at Portobello College even spends her lunch-break in his lesson, just to have a look at him, isn't that great *lol*).

By the way, this is already the second time that I write this post as I managed to delete everything yesterday night before I could publish it...if this ever happens to you: don't try anything else, just press "control + z" this should undo your latest action (here: deleting everything). Might be worth a try...thanks Claudio for that and all the rest as well :-)

Now I need to get some sleep.

Take care and hope to hear you all soon...
