Two nights in the hostel while Kira and Stephan, her boyfriend, were cramming for exams.
Met a nice couple from QLD who were touring Europe. So hi to Carmen and Bruce if you get to emailing me! They taught me a card game, 'shithead'. Sorry Mum but that's what they called it!
The first morning I did my washing at a laundromat where I spoke to an Ecuadorean woman and her young daughter. Funny where you can converse in Spanish.
Since staying at Kira's we've been out to a football match, featuring St Pauli - they drew 1 all. A couple of photos, with me looking confused. It's a suburban venue where the crowd sing wildly to pop tunes such as the Beatles in German. They have inherited chants from visiting British hooligans, so a few in English too. Quite a different world from the MCG. I got rained on with beer when the home team scored a goal and fell on my backside with all the commotion!
We also visited the Reeperbahn, supposedly a world famous district of the night. Stephan's a table soccer nut and got a bit frustrated by my ineptitude.
Bought some socks, jeans and a scarf.
Today I explore solo while Kira and Stephan are studying.
