Goodbye, Hawaii

---

So that's it!

Finally I had to say goodbye to my new home Hawaii. Right now I'm writing you from Phoenix,AZ where my aunt lives.
It's strange. On the one hand you're looking forward to see your family for the holidays and later all your friends back home, but on the other hand you have to leave behind your new family and friends that you made.... somehow for me, my roommates and the people around were like a second family even though I never mentioned it to them. I just hope to see them all again!
Man, I think I will never forget this great experience on Hawaii and all the people that I met.

I want to say "thank you and see you soon" to all the following people and everybody else I forgot: (no special order, so don't get it wrong)

Marc, the coolest and weirdest Hostel Manager: Who needs Conan O'Brien anyway?
Orion, the crazy Israeli dog: Don't whore around too much, man
Scuba Steve: James Bond can go home, Mr. Tourguide!
Laura and Jo, the Aussie girls: see you at the Octoberfest, girls!
Emma and Travis, also Aussies, but ten times crazier!: Party on, guys
Alex and Greg, surferboys at their best: thanx for the board, dudes!
Felix, Californian/Munich globetrotter: Thanx again for showing me the surfmoves!
Joey from the UK: don't say shai-ze all the time :-)
Pascal, the (wannabe) soccer player from Colgne: Next time I teach you how to play
Sebastian, the 'Bavarian Giant': One Jumbo Jack with Cheese and Beacon, please
Lizzy, Partygirl from Berlin: Come to Munich and I 'drink you under the table'
Marcin, the Polish Chinese: Hope you can finish the Austrian project, good luck with that!
Thilo, the German criticizer: I just have one thing for you... 50$
Louise, my sweet Swed: Now don't start overinterpreting, everybody!!!
Hanna and Hannah, also cute Swedish girl: Thanx for the Diamond Head Trip!
Liu and Celina, my I.M. Gang: Talofa everybody!
Antje, alias Red: watching you play (not only Volleyball;-) was always fun
Katarina and Tina, Partygirls from Gothenburg: Hope we have a revival in Germany!
Judith, the advertising professional: See you in Stuttgart ;-)
Guulled, Norwegian Lady Lover: The next cocktail in Indigo is on me, man!
Erik, Mr. Nice Guy and Knut, the Womanizer: Hope to see them in Norway

And last not least, my roommates Katrin, Jeanette and Matthias: Maybe I didn't tell you, but it was a great experience for me living with you three. I hope you had also somehow fun with me in our JAMKIKI.


Please let me know how you are all doing. I'll try to answer every email. Or just write a comment on my Travelblog...
Wish everybody in Germany, Iran, the U.S., Australia, Israel, U.K., Norway, Sweden and wherever else you are right now, the very very best for christmas and that 2006 will be a happy year for all of us!
Will miss you all!

Bye
Kassra
