Two Attempts for Paragliding

After my diving experience I started to forget a bit about how much I was missing my boyfriend. But, of course, I missed him so much and I really wanted him to be back. But as I couldn't change anything about that I focused on the things I could change. I tried to do...

Daily Life comes Back

Actually, I was quite happy that work started again and I wouldn't have so much time to sit in my appartment or walk around the beach and think about how much I missed my boyfriend already, even if he wasn't away for longer than 2 days at that moment. But something...

Alone in Paradise again

I went to the bus station outside the airport and everything I felt was just incredible sadness. I know, it sounds exaggerated and as I would love to dramatize, but it was really hard for me to let him go without knowing when I would see him again. I had bought flight...

The last day

And then it was there - the last day. We slept quite long and enjoyed staying in bed together almost the whole morning. But finally we had to get up because we wanted to have some breakfast and we had to bring back the keys of the car before 12. So we had a short...

Time's running out..

As already assumed, the next morning it was raining. We were both still tired from the trip the day before, so we stayed in bed a little longer. Even if my boyfriend really wanted to get up into the mountains I told him that it would not make any sense with that bad...

Perfect Day

So the next day we had to go to the travel agency and get the car at 9:30am but we didn't really want to get up that early. We stayed in bed a bit longer, had breakfast and finally I was too German to wait longer and forced my boyfriend to get up. We left the appartment...

Appartment Search

So we arrived at the real estate agency and the lady there explained to me that the owner of my appartment had another appartment in Puerto which is almost at the same place as the old one. She gave us the keys and told where we had to go, she couldn't come with us...

Problems starting

Waking up next to my boyfriend the next day was as wonderful as sleeping next to him. We slept in because we were both so tired and when waking up we watched a bit TV and had a small breakfast in my appartment. He wanted to have a relaxing holiday, so we didn't have any...

Stress vs Happiness

Of course, the problems with my appartment weren't solved the week before my boyfriend arrived, even if I went to the agency almost each day. So I just hoped that everything would work out and there wouldn't be any problems. If it was just the electricity, it was...

Goodbye and hello

Of course, the last evening with my Dad passed by so quickly! We just went to have dinner at the restaurant and had some drinks at the hotel bar, because it was raining. I tried to enjoy every minute but finally I had to go to bed as I had to work the next day. I...

The fairytale forest

After the shopping day in Santa Cruz all the others didn't want to make excursions by car anymore. But as we had already paid for the three days my Dad and I decided to go to Anaga just the two of us - something I was really looking forward to, because it was always fun...

Birthday shopping & more

The next day it was the birthday of the other woman that was there with my parents. And as I am a quite nice person (haha) I let her decide what she would like to do that day. She wanted to have a more relaxing day but she didn't know what one could do for that exactly...

Teide

So the next day we received our car (after having breakfast too late another time and arriving too late at the agency, but okay) and I wanted to start our tour. The other couple was not ready yet, so we still had to wait, as always. It was cloudy and I asked the person...

Finally, holidays!

After my diving experience there were only some days left until I would have a long weekend and my Dad and his girlfriend would arrive. I was already quite excited because I would have time to see a bit more of the island and I missed them a lot. Thursday finally they...

20 metres under the sea

Two weeks later I finally could go diving for the first time after my course in Germany one year ago. In Tripadvisor I found a nice diving centre from mother and son from the United Kingdom and wrote them a Mail in order to ask some questions - where is it possible, how...

Not everything is as it is at home..

After the Whale Watching weekend I got to know the other girls better and we went out for having dinner quite often. It was nice to have some people here, but for me it was not easy to adapt myself to their lifestyle. They wanted to go shopping and partying almost every...

Shopping and Whale Watching

The weekend after the intern left was full of activities. Saturday I went to Santa Cruz with the other intern. She has never been there, so I wanted to show her some things like the Auditorio and Plaza de Espana. We went there by bus, arrived at about 2pm and started...

A lot of Goodbyes

And there it was, the day my mom would leave again, after one week. I was sad but at the same time I needed some time for myself again, because every day after 9 hours at work I came home, went directly to the hotel and came back at 11, slept and worked again. That was...

Swimming with a Pretzel? Possible!

Some days after my birthday my Mum arrived in Puerto de la Cruz in order to visit me a couple of days. Even if I was used to discuss a lot with her during holidays I was happy that she came and that there was someone I could pass time with. She arrived in the evening...

Birthday in the Sun

Two days after the beach experience it was my birthday. It was the first time I would not spend it in Germany but as I have never had a big party for it, that was okay for me. It was just a bit weird that here almost nobody knew that it was my birthday and I am used to...
