Waffles and happy in Cologne

The last two weeks of the new year have been a little too work related and culminated in me being very Bridget Jones-esque and crying at work last night. Cringe, I know. So fast forward to the wee hours of the morning as I embarked on my travels to imm Cologne for this meet-up and I am beyond ready and excited for some positive light and inspiration.

But me being me, I was late to a train connection and very thankfully made it due to a very lovely tall male German model (seriously) helping me find my way, ate lunch in the train station with a group of Japanese girls who did not speak a bit of English, bought Dunkin Donuts for kicks, shared a taxi with the funniest, sweetest Turkish man who made me laugh in the mess of things being lost in translation.



And I left the battery to my digital camera in Dublin. So Iphone camera it is...

It's been a day of nothing quite going to plan but it's been hilariously fun just riding it out.  I have quite literally stopped and ate at every waffle and sweet shop on the little streets around my little apartment here.

I slept like a like a little kitten in the setting sun and am so ready to try my first Kölsch tonight.

I'm not sure if this is what I thought today would be like, but I'm happy and safe. And ever so present. I absolutely cannot wait be re-united with my lovely, sweet ladies tomorrow. Hip hip!
