Officially moved in (in “only” 5 months!)

5 months in and still living out of suitcases

We are 5 months into our COVID-19 moving journey and it has been a hell of a year. Something that should have just been: Pack your stuff -> ship your stuff -> move to Berlin has become: pack your stuff -> send it to storage -> live out of suitcases for 5 months in various different houses and countries -> wait for weeks in an empty apartment for…

The First Week

So the day finally came and passed, we’ve made it to Berlin! To put it lightly, it’s been one hell of a week.

Leading up to the move we spent most of the final days saying goodbye to friends and family, and finishing the last of the bits and bobs we needed to prepare. It was a little surreal since we’d been kind of on hold waiting for the past 1 1/2 months during the travel ban. Out of…

German Studies and a Small Update

German Studies and a Small Update

So it looks like there’s finally some progress for us! As of June 15th Germany will be opening their borders again. At the moment we’re waiting for an updated flight plan from Icelandair so we’re still not 100% sure when we’ll finally get to Berlin. Fingers crossed that we’ll have a flight soon!

Having a bit more of a time frame now has completely revitalized me. The past two months have been…

A long overdue update

A long overdue update

So we’re coming in at 2 months stuck in Iceland and I felt we were due for a bit of an update. It was pretty disappointing getting stuck here just a few days before leaving for Germany. All of our things had already been sent to storage but thankfully my parents offered us their spare bedroom to use. We set up a bit of a workstation in the dining room for us to work at. Benn in his new job and me…
