As we ended two weeks of our precourses and before we begun with our first semester coursework, we took part in a little FRM tradition - a day-hike to Saxony Switzerland with Dr. Hans!
For many of us, this was our first introduction with the beautiful landscapes that Saxony has to offer. Hope you guys enjoy the video.

"We wanted to make memories in every city we crash in through our Erasmus Journey. Here is the first part from Dresden, Germany where our 1st semester took place from October '19- February '20. The days were super amazing and colorful !
This is not a pre planned video! Just before the night we left Dresden- we thought to explore the city at midnight for the last time and shot some discrete cips ! Tried to make something out of them! Some of us from Flood Risk Management and Ground Watch are here, but next time- we wish to catch the whole bunch in the frame ! #erasmus #memories #streetsinging #mixed
Thanks goes to --- Amin Shakya ( Nepal) , Kamilla Zhalmurziyeva ( Kazakhstan) & Dwight Baldwin (United States) & the stranger we met ! đź’›
The studio version of the song and the video was recorded in Vienna!

Europe has given me great vibes and boost to work on further with my solo music experiments. During the quarantine period in Nederland, very often I used to release the work stress of the semester sitting in the balcony of my 9th floor apartment with my guitar. One night, I was enjoying the south breeze gazing at the stars and suddenly saw one of the shooting stars running towards other one and finally colliding! I felt so lucky to experience this rare phenomena and with all these, the initial lyrics and tune of the song clicked in my mind. The background thought was - I desperately wanted to go back home in the upcoming summer vacation, but couldn't do it because of the Covid '19 restrictions, meanwhile it made me feel so strange and startled how easily stars can end up to their preferred destinations!
