Kiel for the 3rd time...


I never think about this before that i will comeback to stay in Kiel though its only for months. Sure there are many changes..the main train station what so called Haubahnhof now is almost ready. The first time i came in Kiel in 1998, i remembered they start building this station. Then the second time is on 2001, the station is still under u. Living in Kiel for almost 5 years but the train station is not finish yet. But now i came back..well nice station is almost ready..what a long time to build this station!! well..
Another changes i find here..nowi though Kiel become crowded. I remembered in 1998, when i walk around sophienhof, all the eyes will look at me, since i found that i really like an alien, i never or precisely very rare meeting the foreign people..i though i am the only color people asian in this city...so strange..In 2001 it"s a little bit change, at least i still meet more Indonesian living in Kiel and also people mostly from middle east or eastern coast of africa say kenya, madagascar etc. But now in 2009..what amazing..sooo many people you will find here..whatever they come from..I never feel anymore as an alien, now it is more easy to find foreigner or people from different race with you...Kiel is really growing faster! The bus no 11 where i always taken to work is never empty anymore anytime!
What is not changing is the kieler bay! the favorite place for me to enjoy the water..and now i am living close to the water...close to Kiel linie the favorite place to take a walk enjoy the calm side of Kiel..I never thinking to come back..but i will always come back..
