Germany was amazing. I could not have asked for a better time. I hadn't seen my friend Ines in 6 years so it was hard to know what to expect from our time together. The last time we saw each other she came to visit me in California and I was not in the best of places. I had told her via email that I was sober and that my life had changed dramatically from the last time I had seen her. She has traveled a great bit since the last time I saw her and has also experienced many changes. So I think that neither one of us had any idea of what to expect. When I arrived in Berlin and saw Ines waiting for me at the gate I welled up with tears. We were so close in high school and it was really heartwarming to see her face again. It reminded me of how I was when I first lived in Texas: confused and young, but still a better version of the years to come.
I am really tired today and very homesick. I know this sounds strange, but I miss my Peugeot most of all. She is like my best friend. I've made a lot of sober friends here in Madrid which has been amazing. I went out some this weekend for the first time in this city and had a really great time dancing. I keep leaving my camera at home so I haven't very many photos of Madrid, but I promise I will take some more soon. In the mean time here are photos of Germany:
