Innsbruck: Afterthoughts

I just got back from a weekend in Innsbruck with two other exchange students from my home university. Every time I come back from traveling, I have this feeling of calmness and fulfilment. There's much to take in from every place that I visit and I don't want to let it slip away. Every place that I've visited in my life has affected me in some way, and I don't want this memory of the beauty of Innsbruck to fade away. But I know that when I wake up in the morning it will already be somewhat distant, since I have to get back to reality in Vienna. Since my move, I've experienced the chaos and traditions of Oktoberfest, seen Munich, capital of Bavaria, been to the famous Neuschwanstein castle in Germany's countryside, seen the unbelievably small country of Liechtenstein, taken a train across Austria and seen an innumerable amount of towns surrounded by the Alps, and visited Innsbruck. Being here has reminded me of how much I love to travel. I'm looking forward to letting every experience and every new place change me, and most of all I hope to hold on to it all forever.
