Down in the past...

This is how it looks like, when 7 of your best friends come over from Germany to spent New-Years together with you in Lisbon. Of course that means a big spaceproblem and bathroomstruggles, but on the other hand it means a wonderful journey into the past. We have been friends since highschool, when we all spent every morning together, side by side... Things have changed... the world moved on... we all live in different cities now... found new friends there... We don´t see each other that often... one more often... the others less... And when we see each other, than mostly on somebodies party... surrounded by a lot of others. This 6 days it was just us... us like in the old days... just us...

... and Lisbon!




























Honeys, you have no idea how much I love you all! The week we spent together here in our little, little house was just amazing. Before you all came I was kind of afraid if you all fit into our Lisbon-Life, but now I know that it was just perfect to have you here and it was just much better than I imagined it would be. It feels great to realize that our friendship never died and we all are still great together.
In my opinion, our frienship is extraordinary!

Julia: You are just amazing!
Michel: Just open your eyes for the future. It will be great! Cause you deserve IT ALL...
Flo: I don´t know any person that is as un-complicated as you are. Keep that! Its so nice to have you around! And you´re also the best storyteller in the world!
Benny: I just love you! Can´t wait for your next call... ;-)
Marco: Lets go disco-dancing! New-Years morning 7:00 o`clock at Luis Camoes with you and benny is the best thing ever! Your´re so unique. Thank god!
Giovanni: Ey de Plaus! Its unbelievable how much you can eat... :-) Really don´t wanna miss your friendship!
Seonny: Finally we spent a lot of time together again. I really, really missed that. But its also good to see, that we didn´t loose our friendship at all. Lets call each other more often in the future!

Its amazing to see that after all these years, our friendship is just the same. And for the future...now matter how it will be... you all can be sure: I WILL BE THERE!

*Have you ever told your friends,
that they mean everything to you?
Did you tell them, that you´ll be there
to make their dreams come true?
YES I HAVE!
Should have done it long ago,
but now I know, what I didn´t long ago.
And I know, that life gets shorter
everyday we loose a day...
So I what you all to know,
that I love you!
What do we wait for, if we keep our feelings
looked up and to ourselves?
We hesitate but soon we´ll all regret
when we find the door has closed
and we´re too late...*
