Getting ready for my move from Düsseldorf to Heidelberg. I haven't given an update on pubksi for a while.

Since I flew back to Israel in June I decided to accept the 3 month internship at a pain research lab in Heidelberg (Germany) starting mid August. If all goes well, the internship will transfer into a PhD contract :)

I am excited and anxious. I also have doubts, like, if I did the right thing by staying to do my PhD in Germany instead of returning to Israel and find something there. I miss my friends from home. I miss the weather, the food, the people... But I chose otherwise, and I have my reason, I think.

So, my long "summer" ends. It started in April 2014 with finishing my Masters (first post to Hubski btw), to returning to Israel for a longer period, meeting the local burning man community,returning to love the country again, the summer war last year, a eurotrip over 2.5 months, a hole of depression, a short PhD-position in a lab I hated, a visit to poland, back to Israel and now this. That was a long breath.

I wonder what comes next :)

Update: The car is packed. Off to the south!

I'm glad you found another program. I hope it works out for you. I think pain research can be closely related to the other interests you have (that we have previously discussed). Good luck!

I love Heidelberg. Just absolutely the coolest little place.
