While we are very happy to be home in a damp cool New Zealand, and our 2019 big OE adventure took an unplanned turn, we had some fantastic adventures in the European world!
We started with two kiwis and were joined along the way…
The waiwera crew flew from various corners of the world to all catch up in our favourite second home in Malta.
Father son time with George and Russ, thru thick and thin….George was with us in great times and not so great times (earning some big son brownie points!)
Caught up with some old friends – from Australia and Switzerland, and making new friends along the way…Russ has a knack of collecting locals and t-shirts!
Modes of transport; trains, boats and planes (and bikes). Feet also were well exercised, on cobbled and dusty streets…
A variety of food, finger, fancy and fast!
And the liquid refreshments, from a variety of beers (all good), two for one cocktails (patiently worked our way through a range of these in happy hour) lots of water (sparkling and still), coke in tiny cans and glass bottles.
Some wonderful couples moments, in Malta, Vienna, Zurich, Poland and of course Berlin. Sun, sea, heatwaves, thunderstorms, rain and wind, most of it warm in the northern hemisphere summer.
While the adventures were cut a little short, we saw some sides of life that not many experience and some little side stories as we got up close and personal (at times a little too personal) with the humans of Berlin.
We can now look back at Berlin with a moderate amount of fondness, now we know it will not be our home!
