Californication

It is June 1st 2014. Two days ago our little family has moved to Palo Alto, California. I am going to attend Stanford University and hopefully finish my PhD about collaborative economy - what a wonderful place to write about this fascinating topic! I am excited and very happy. Yesterday I was daydreaming while crossing University Ave in Palo Alto with two heavy grocery bags. At the same time as I was thinking to myself: Oh I feel like a Californian girl, my foot slid off the pavement and I landed on my knees and fell off to my side. I guess I am not used to falling down as I did not even realize what has just happened. A passerby rushed to help me up. I said: Thank you, and thought to myself: What a reality check! My jeans were broken. Luckily broken jeans are the trend of this season. I love my new life.
