Merry X-mas from Capetown
Only 1 week working at the clinic almost got me Burned-Out. I had to work 10h a day on the clinic, then get my diploma going, write some kite stories from Taiwan and with no real time left it was pretty tough. But it was only one week, so I have got vacation and time to relax now. I just spent 2 days in Basel with at a very good friends birthday party, and now I am at the airport on my way to Capetown. I will spend the next 3 weeks there, working together with a magzine, but also studying alot, kiting and having fun! I will keep you up to date regularily, no worries!So I am wishing everybody a MERRY X-MAS!!! Celebrate as much as you can, dont eat too much and stay ready for the next upcoming season :-)
Cheers
Jule

Living my life: Combining Uni and Kiting
This time in Brazil I wont take as many pics as usual, which is not because I am lazy but rather cause I wanna focus more on getting some video footage in. Thats why there is not too many new pics ;-) Patrick, a friend of mine, who I had already been travelling with several times, and he was nice enough to film me now and then. The work defenitely paid off so far: Double-S-Pass, KGB2blind, Frontmobe-Pass... all on video :-) sweet!!!Continue reading Comments (0) 06.11.2009. 00:38
