Germany – poster action

I guess i should say something about Berlin.. I won’t get into any details, just briefly tell what happend…

We all meet in the middle of Denmark, the middle of nowhere, in the crapiest(?) car ever seen. It was red, not even shiny, smelly, made a lot of strange sounds, and it was… horrible… But i think it was a car with feelings. And i think some higher power was invalved in this mysterius car. I hated it… But now i realized how much i love it (as long as i don’t have to go in it again.)

Everything goes good. Going down towards Germany… Crapy-Devil-Bus (CDB) hasn’t showed any signs… yet… Well we go into Germany, and one of the Hungerian girls is driving. Suddently she takes an exit from the Autobahn, and i say to her (we are following an other bus) that she is following the wrong bus.. and after… a while she realizes that i’m right.

Well after realizing we are lost, we have to turn back.. but we where lost in a beautiful place, a forest, where the leaves was changing color. Then when we started to turn back, the CDB broke down.. The speed pedal thingy died… so we where stuck. In the middle of nowhere with the CDB. But even that, all those things that happened, i got myself a ”he-man moment”

Next thing we know, the other Bus comes, and they save our CDB… And we are on the road again. Next stop. Pillow, new ”he-man moment” But this one was even more great then the first one. I had three big moments like that, that day. Was my best day in my DI-life so far. The day before, one of the worst.

Finally we arrived in Berlin, after 14 hours on the road (CDB also ran out och diesel… on autobahn…) They said the drive would take 8 hours. Autobahn had a different plan for us, obviously. We got to the DI house of Berlin. It was huge. I loved it. Me and an other Di opend every door in that place. Wonderful.

Poster action. Posters everywhere. Here, there, in shops, give to people walking by, in bars. Highlights. Meeting Kim, spendig time with her and Adam. Sad giraffe game, Trying cheastnuts… (enough said), walking around with coffee in my hand, being in the Maria church, laying in the grass, talking, dreaming, laughing, wishing, enjoying, kissing, huging, leafs, grass, swedish, hungerian, whisper.

The days went by, i was sad coz Kim decided not to go with us, and i miss her. I really, really, really wanted her to stay.

Yeah, the reason we went to Berlin was to put up posters, to make people aware that this program excist for all those people out there that wants to go to Africa and work for 6 months.
