World trip 2010–2012Travel blog by Mathias Hentrich

Thanks!

There are people in the world, they’re just irreplaceable.

1. Mental backing: The base
2. Being part of it: Financial support

1. Mental backing: The base.
Various circumstances lead to my decision for a long journey to see more and broaden my mind. Due to many interesting trips through Europe as a child with my parents, I had an early desire to travel. Camping holidays in Spain, Andorra, France, Italy, Croatia, etc. followed. The idea for a world tour came in May and June 2010 - in May the first desire and immediately after graduation (a few minutes after the oral defense) the firm decision to go through with it. In less than three months, I published my dissertation as a book, quit my apartment, put the remaining household to my parents, reorganized contracts / insurances etc. and started with the travel arrangements like office-reorganization, first vaccinations and visas. I bought the necessary travel-equipment in less than three weeks - the most just a week before departure with my brother in Europe’s biggest outdoor shop in Cologne. Stressful? In any case!
For the support during and after the travel arrangements I would like to warmly thank many very good friends and especially my parents. As I mentioned in my doctoral degree speech: The best parents you could ever want!


2. Being part of it: Financial support
Join in, let your money be timeless – protected from any devaluation or theft – and become a part of this unforgettable project. :)


3. My heartfelt thanks…

…for your confidence.
I’m really looking forward to seeing you in person to thank you for your support!

    Lieber Mathias,
    zunächst herzlichen Glückwunsch zu Deinem heutigen Geburtstag und die Einladung
    zu der zünftigen Feier.
    Wir wünschen Dir, wenn wir auch leider verhindert sind, einen schönen Verlauf
    Deines Ehrentages und vor allem ein glückliches, gesundes und ereignisreiches
    neues Lebensjahr mit vielen interessanten Eindrücken und Begegnungen.
    Du bist ja auf gutem Wege zu einem gefragten Reiseschriftsteller. Wir freuen uns
    über Deine interessanten Berichte und danken auch für Deine Karte aus Dhaka, die
    heute eintraf. Alles Gute weiterhin und vergiß nicht, gelegentlich auch mal wieder nach Hause zu kommen. Wieviele Kontinente stehen denn noch auf Deinem Plan????
    Herzliche Grüße aus der "Alten Welt"
    Gerda und Erhard
