Oh man.. what a mix of emotions.. long, complicated day.. with a really nice ending

Today is my last ‘official’ day in my 2.5 years with the Munich IoT Center..   

It’s been a long touch but so fun  assignment.. we’ve built this place from bare walls in and its been such an amazing learning experience.. im really having trouble finding words how to sum it up.. or how to say good bye.. I actually had some teary moments today saying good bye .. actually .. I really like the german for it Auf Weidershen.. until we see each other  again.. 

and we will see each other again:  in the short term I will continue to work with this place to make sure we have a good transition on the new project I just delivered.. and in the longer term I will continue to work closely with my group

I’ve met so many kind and brilliant people.. and really made some life long friends 

*sigh*

 

At 6 we all got together for a really nice going away party for me and my good freind Mirek.. Mirek is moving to Singapore to work with our friend Harriet. It was fun getting together to say goodbye as we headed to opposite ends of the planet

 

our freinds had set up the cafeteria in bavariean checkers.. and everyone bruaght food and drink to share.. it was so, so, so nice !

 

 

Petr and Mirek brought Czech wine beer and cookies 

 

it was a great time.. lots of stories.. hugs.. a few tears 

 

Sherri and Babett presented me with a really, really beutiful german check shirt and this amazing vest. I feel like a king wearing it.. 

 

oh I’ll miss this view !

I\\

I will miss these folks so much… 

at the saem time I will love staying closer to home and my family 

and I’m really looking forward t my next advneture..

 

Auf wuiedersehen .. alles Liebe Munchen.. 

I’ll be back soon !
