So short before 01:00 my alarm went off, I was sleeping pretty deeply and it took me a bit to get up.

I packed my things and made my way down to checkout. The bus was waiting for everybody to drive to the airport.

We went through the security check and passport control that were all kept fairly short and without incidents.

The start still got delayed a bit longer but then finally we were able to board.

The flight itself was quite alright after 12 hours we landed in Frankfurt. They said that for the flight to Zurich you had to go to gate A17 at 17:30.

So I hurried since it was already 16:10, I got through the security check (where I was taken out again and had to take off my shoes) then the passport control and then I ran to the gate.

First I went down with an escalator, then I had to go up again with the stairs until I was at the right spot. Here I wanted to check with Lufthansa if my flight was actually this one. I got into this separate waiting area and waited around.

I waited until 17:00 because then I should be at the gate. They didn't call my number so I just walked away.

At the gate I talked to one guy at the boarding, he was actually really helpful and said that Condor did not yet change my booked flight. So he did that for me.

Now I waited for boarding, I thought it was already an hour too late until my mother wrote me that it's not 17:00 yet....so I forgot to change the time zone again.

The boarding was still a bit late but I got on my flight. I just hope my luggage makes it as well.

Just a short flight later I landed in Zurich. It was very cold and I quickly put my jacket on and went to the baggage claim.

It took a while to get started and I was quite worried that I would keep standing here without my luggage.

But I was lucky, just shortly after it started my luggage came out and I was really happy.

Then I started to head to the exit, around the corner and then... there, they were. I didn't actually feel so long ago just like yesterday when I last saw them.

My parents...

We had a beautiful hugging reunion and went to the car to finally go back home.

We ate and talked and told about everything until it was quite late. Our cat Minka came over as well but she just quickly smelled my hand and was already done with welcoming me back.

Now I am going for a shower and probably to bed it was quite a struggle to finally get home...

Thanks to everybody who I met on this journey and to all that read my blog everyday enjoying my struggles and my experiences. It was a good time that I will never forget.
