December 2016 in pictures

December is over and with that another year! After a delayed flight (i.e. two flight cancels and another 105-minute delay) I finally made it back to Germany a day later than planned on the 31st and got to spend my first New Year here.

Just 3 sleeps until I move to my second Heimatland, so I thought I'd write a small post about things I'm looking forward to after having spent a year in Hannover last year. I did consider doing a post about things I'm not looking forward to (a lack of Terry's Chocolate Orange and the queues,… Continue reading 10 Things I’m Looking Forward To In Frankfurt
