Heart out

“If you feel something, talk to us.” – this brilliant sentence came from our Works Council today.

I believe I’m an honest person. I can’t really pull off a poker face and most of the time I wouldn’t even want to have one. It shouldn’t be too difficult to read me. I get genuinely enthusiastic, interested, vibrant. I am wearing my heart out in the open.

However, the World we live in doesn’t always care, it seems. It is not usual to be really open nowadays.

But I have my ways to still spread my unconditional love. There are times, when it is returned.

Slow down

There are some days when my brain just shuts down after a while. That’s when it makes no sense to work any longer. That’s when it’s better to cut it short and rest.

Don’t forget to slow down every now and then.

Ein Meer

For long, I did not like how German sounds. Compared to Hungarian it sounds way harder and colder. However, after 4 years, as I got more and more used to the language spoken near me in the U-Bahn every now and then (Berlin is a bubble), sometimes I even have a moment or two when I forget it is German. It just sounds normal.

Then there are songs that you would relate to even if you would not understand a word.

This one reminds me of someone special. Sometimes I can relate to that “Ich auch!” at the end.

4 years

4 years ago tonight, I arrived to an airbnb apartment with big dreams, huge motivation and a Tesco paper bag. Little did I know back then that my love story with Berlin will have so many twists and turns, yet will remain passionate as in the very beginning.

As I was editing my year summary video, I noted some things that never change, and many that do. I have more and more friends, some very good ones among them, my old relationships did not fade but got stronger, I have made new connections, chosen paths and it’s incredible how much I’ve changed.

Berlin is a magical bubble. I would say I hardly can wait what the future brings, but in fact, I just would like to enjoy every moment of it as it is.

Catapulting myself with a one way ticket has proven itself as my best decision so far.

Ich ❤ mein Leben.

Still stupid

First day strolling in Kraków was amazing. We are still stupid, and finally had time to discuss so many things, without having to finish any conversations. I can’t believe it’s only Friday yet.

So glad to be here.

Depth

Friendships can’t be measured by time spent together. Real connections are stronger than any distance or time. I’m about to visit my best friend in Kraków in the upcoming days, and tonight, a very good friend surprised me with a trip outside my comfort zone and into the World of posh Berlin vegan fine dining. We had so much fun, and got full with amazing food and good stories.

I am so lucky to have friends like I do. ❤
