To all my beloved ones, family, friends, travel mates, people from the countries I have visited and to all readers of this blog: Thanks for every minute you shared your time with me! Thanks for every help and every kind word! Thanks for every smile! Thanks for every comment on this blog or on Facebook, every link, every mail, every text message, every Skype call, every greeting! Whatever! I tried to answer them all, apologies if I may have forgotten a few (mail inbox is massive once more…). Nevertheless, I really appreciated every single one! Thanks so much!

Sorry for all the birthdays greetings I did not sent, but I often forgot to look into my almanac on time. Yeah, still on old style (=offline) calender. So I often saw it too late. But be assured, that I sent out my good wishes for you nevertheless!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I wish you some peaceful days with joy and laughter, a blessed Christmas, and a fantastic new year! May it be full of delight, love, and happiness!

I really, really miss you all! BIG BIG HUGS
Michael

PS: Elli will be here over Christmas and New Years Eve. YEAH! Don’t expect too many life signs in this time ;-)
