greetings from koh samui, thailand :)
about 30 degrees every day, REALLY cheap mango shakes (made from fresh mangoes, 60 eurocents at one restaurant), green curry (80 eurocents) and thai style cuisine w/ lots of coconut milk, little food-stands everywhere... i’m in heaven.

hahaha - we just spent 3 hours cutting back on our travel itinerary, and eventually realized that we actually had one whole week more than we thought.
now we need to find something to do ;-)
given the incredibly low long-distance-train prices1, i didn’t even stand a chance of NOT going somewhere by train in february.
in the end, mathias and i decided to go to france, not least in order to try and polish up our rusty language skills.
strasbourg is a nice little city near the german border, which has repeatedly changed hands between germany and france in history.
it doesn’t have an overkill of sights like the big cities, so we were able to enjoy some very relaxing days (as opposed to ireland, where i was the only driver - and i was a little stressed out in the end) visited some museums, walked around in the city looking for patisseries (pastry shops).
again: just a quick glimpse, more photos to be uploaded at some time.

it was a warm february afternoon when lisa rauterfield, stefan holzmannston, fritz macwachter and markus nolftonshire, took a plane to ireland with one common goal:
visiting clemens o’haider in limerick and distracting him from his studies abroad.
this book of pictures shalt provide a short insighte into their wondrous journey.

cute timbered houses, accordion music in the streets, fresh croissants and eclaires - just like in the movies...
i bid you fair greetings from the emerald island.

markus, fritz, lisa, stefan and clemens at the cliffs of moher, ireland
