The last 5 months I have spent as an Erasmus student in the beautiful and exiting Catalan city Barcelona. Especially in the last couple of days learning aroung-the-clock time has passed that fast, incredible! Alltogether, I took exams in 4 classes, one was in English class but the others were examined in Spanish. Now I am done with all the university stuff and it’s a really good feeling. The next days I will take a little bit easier, before I will go for some skiing to “Andorra -Pas de la Casa” on Sunday! As far as my training is concerned I am happy that I managed to train quite a lot during the exam period. On the one hand it cost quite an effort to go out for training when you just finished your 8 hours studying, but on the other hand it is a good way to recharge your batteries. The last week I had some good workouts doing around 110k in total and this week was planned to be even tougher. But unfortunately I have had an unpleasant cough since Monday so that I decided to take some days off. From the 1st of February on I will be back in Paderborn. Although I am really looking forward to meeting all my friends again, I will miss the Eramus-Life… that’s for sure!

Gracias a todos por este tiempo de puta madre en los últimos 5 meses. He disfrutado mucho de los entrenos, competiciones y conversiones interesantes con vosotros. Voy a echaros de menos pero seguramente volveré un día. Ens veurem nois i noies…
