Our lovely bedroom

I won't be seeing our Stift rooms much over the next two months, as I will be working in Kiel. On Sunday, I will take the 3 hour trip with the express train to Kiel and find the hotel in Neumünster where I will be living most of the time.

Thankfully, I will probably go home on some of the weekends and Ben will come and visit me a couple times. If he uses his student i.d. to ride the slow train for free to Hamburg, the trip will be about 5 hours.

So apart from the fact that I will have to spend so much time away from my Benjamin, I am glad to have the opportunity to work more. I will be teaching English from 8:45 am to 6:30 pm everyday, with an hour and a half for breaks. I know the only thing that will get me through the first week without him, is knowing we will be able to go for a walk on the beach together when he arrives on Friday.

PS: We are heading back to Minnesota! I fly home July 12th and Ben will return on August 1st.
