Is it November 5th yet?

this you?

Happy Birthday!

Hope the traveling life is treating you well! I'm looking forward to all the pictures, videos and all the storytimes you'll have for me.

Unfortunately this year there won't be any cross-atlantic mail shipment, a digital letter is far easier to send, and I was still able to attach a picture of Mimo, so I'd still consider it valid.

Tanti auguri! Questo è il terzo compleanno che passiamo assieme, e sapere che ora sei 21enne, mentre quando ci siamo conosciuti eravamo entrambi 18enni.. fa impressione. Wir haben so viel Zeit zusammen verbracht, und ich bin so glücklich, dass ich eine Person wie dich gefunden habe. Una persona che mi ama, e che sarà al mio fianco sempre, anche nel secondo (!) anno a lunga distanza. Ohne Sicherheiten für die Zukunft, ohne echten Plan, aber mit festen Ideen. Wir beide gegen alles, und ich liebe es zu wissen, dass in jedem Fall alles gut gehen wird.

Mi manchi. I'm living without a piece of myself. Ich liebe meine Erasmus-Erfahrung bis jetzt, ich habe so viel Neues gelernt und getan, aber es ist nicht das Selbe, wenn ich dein süßes Gesicht nicht jeden Tag sehen kann.

Ich liebe dich. So viel. Thank you for being the person you are, and thank you for being such an important part of my life.. even though it makes this "long distance" thing so hard.

Have fun going around the UK you little traveler, I can't wait to see you again and give you a big birthday smooch.

Merry 21!
