And here comes...the FEAR!

Only 6 days left to spend in Germany! Wow! I didn't think that time would go by that fast...! Now that I packed all my stuff into boxes, loaded the car, left Paderborn and my empty room behind (after a great goodbye party!!), I start feeling anxious:
What am I doing? China? Really? I don't speak any Chinese! How can I survive there? Japan? Really? I don't know the actual danger of the Fukushima disaster! Do I want to come back being contaminated? Can I eat sushi? Can I go swim in the ocean? Can I even go to Tokyo which is only situated 240km south of Fukushima?

Damn it...I am going! There is no way back now.

On Thursday I have to go to Düsseldorf to get my visa for Japan. 2 days before my flight leaves. Incredibly last-minute those embassies' bureaucracy!
What more is left to do? Well...pack my bags, go visit my grandma to say goodbye, re-pack my bags :D get enough info about Beijing in order to reduce my anxiety, throw another goodbye party for my friends at home, and then: time tooooo say gooooodbyyyyeee!

So, I guess my next post will be from China O_O stay tuned

Bye bye Paderborn - thanks guys for this nice last evening!
