It’s so hot here in Berlin and I already miss the weather in
Newcastle. I won’t trust my own words for saying this – but, it’s true. When I
was in Newcastle I missed the summer – cos it barely reaches the temperature
above 20°C there.
Currently, it shows on my phone 26°C in Berlin and it simply
feels humid and “unbearable”. Maybe I spent too much time in the North East
part of the UK.
I don’t know when the next time I will be in Newcastle
again. I am sure I will visit it but I won’t live in this city again. It is a
nice city – I definitely don’t regret to spend the last few years in this city.
I have met so many interesting people from almost all walks of life and it definitely
has changed my personality in some ways (somehow)…
The first time I heard about Newcastle was back in 2010 –
phew – how quick time flies. Back then, I was looking for a postgraduate school
for my Masters’ degree.
On my list were only: London, Manchester, Liverpool, Edinburgh
and Glasgow. When a friend introduced me to the city called Newcastle and it
somehow has caught my attention. Application went smooth and I got my place for
2011/12. #yeah
The one year Master program was very intense but I really
like it. Totally different teaching system from what I know in Germany. There were
of course ups and downs – but overall I won’t mind to go back.

| My Graduation Ceremony, 2012 |
After uni I wouldn’t think I would stay in Newcastle.
However, I got a job offer. My first real job and that’s in the UK. *haha*
I will be forever thankful for this opportunity, even though
I won’t miss (at the moment) any of my tasks. I know that some people would be
jealous if I tell them what my task or the company I worked with is… in my last
weeks at work I trained my replacement – and she was so of passion “Oh – I totally
loved it. Always wanted to do something with fashion and beauty and that’s in a
PR agency”. But this passion – I have lost it over the time. Same with city.
Hence, it was only a logical step for me to move on. To try something
different...
However, I would have never imagined that this next step
would take me to the other side of the world in about few weeks time.

I am really excited since I have so many plans that I want
to put into action – also career wise.
I really look forward to this new challenge and all the new
people that I will meet. But most of all to spend time with my family and
relatives. Life has taught me that no matter where in this world you are. No
matter how wonderful your friends or your significant other half is, no one can
replace the family bond. And I surely have tasted in the past few years all the
taste that life could offer... *lol*
I will miss Newcastle and all the wonderful people that I have
met. I will cherish this memory and will take it with me wherever I will be in
this world.
Life is so full of excitement and we all shall be thankful
for each new day and the opportunity that is given to us to make each day
better.
Lisa xoxo
