Berliner Relle: gonfaron and goodbyes

About the Relle

Born and raised in Auckland, New Zealand I was nearing my completion of the tried and true steps to becoming an adult. University? check! Job of 2 years? Check! Living independently away from home? Check! Ready for something more challenging and a whole lot bigger than Auckland, I moved to Berlin in April 2010. As a Kiwi, avoiding an OE is about as unlikely as Tom Cruise converting to sanity, although choosing Berlin made for a pretty bold move. Not being ready for adulthood and frightened by the multitude of friends marrying and contemplating children..it was time to gap. Armed with very little comprehension of the German language but a big yearning for all things unknown we set off on one big year adventure. I aim to provide insight into life on the other side and hopefully convince all those doubtful kids out there that you can conquer Berlin!

gonfaron and goodbyes

I can't really believe how fast the last 4 weeks have gone. I'm beyond excited to be in Marseille but there was a sad au revoir this morning, goodbye Gonfaron in all your donkey flying glory. I selected a few of my favourite snaps from my time spent in Gonfaron. Countless hours of helping out in the yard and gardens, countless delectable meals and countless entertainment provided by 2.5 year old cuties.
