Tusind Tak!

September 20, 2008

I will return, one way or the other, one day, sooner or later. For short or for long. Until then thank you Alex at Dave Lombardo for fantastic drinks, Hagen at Bellman Bar for the music, the nerds for the tech talk and weird nights at King Kong Klub, Elisabeth for the best trip to Berghain, Hendrik for the talks, the books, the articles, the records and the nights on the couch, Falk for being the strange man he is, Daniel for being a girl and Kati for the exuberant welcome, Martin for being a lovable conservative choir boy singing Roxanne, Gretta for being like a sister and a really cool woman, the sun and the balcony, my bike and all the tid-bits that made living in this city worthwile. I love you all <3
