Mission accomplished!

Apparently I have this very particular way of saying goodbye to a place. It was my lovely flatmate who pointed it out and I didn’t give it any importance, because I had no intention of perpetuating the tradition, but … Ups! Saturday night out and it happened again.

And this was her mission, not mine. I was, in fact, the victim (or one of them) of my matchmaker friend putting her skills into action. So that’s what she told me the morning after: Mission accomplished! Now you can move.

The only problem is I still have no confirmation of when I am moving, but now I can concentrate on starting the house/room hunt.

And then, just one day later, I find myself sitting in my hotel room sipping half a bottle of red wine (which by the way was free, courtesy of Hilton hotels, and I’m not going to ask why) and spending the evening on Valentine’s day watching Before sunrise; a story about a train, a German speaking city and a couple who are spending their one and only night together before they never see each other again… and there’s no sex involved!!! I wonder who would be so stupid to do that (wink)… Brilliant!

So now I just can’t wait to go to Vienna.
