Auf Wiedersehen Berlin!

*cafe with kristina*


My last full day in Berlin! It seems crazy, and although I'm very excited to go home, leaving is bittersweet. I love it here in Berlin, and I'll miss my classmates a lot. We'll all see each other again in Greece, but other than that we're all going our separate ways. So, these last few days I've been going into the city and exploring a bit more, but mainly trying to spend time each day with EMCLers. Now I just have a bit more packing and cleaning to do, and then tomorrow I'm off for a long day of traveling!
