A year ago today, I moved to the other side of the world, without knowing a word of any foreign language. Today, I passed a German exam permitting me to study at university in my first ever second language. Fuck yeah, life!

I quit my career, sold everything I owned and followed my heart for this giant adventure. Reactions varied from „I wish I was as brave as you“, to „that’s crazy, what about money?!“, and behind closed doors, I’m sure people accused me of having my head in the clouds. Loads of people thought I couldn’t do it but those people don’t know how determined I am.

It’s been a frigging hard slog. The last two months almost broke me. But today, I fucking did it.
