So I reached Cambridge and everything is just so neat. I walked around the first night and besides the pleasure of seeing green things again (fields, trees, grass etc.), I was quite impressed by the cuteness of the town, the pretty architecture and the numerous book stores. On top of my wonderful walk through tiny pedestrian streets I found a cozy coffee shop serving good quality cappuccino. I was thrilled sitting there preparing for the three next days' workshop.
Since I stepped out of the train station I had been humming the Stereo MCs great 80s hit 'step it up'. I was terrified that I would get run over by left driving cars that I didn't notice before too late. By humming the song, I could remind myself to keep left and look right. 'To the left ... To the right ... Step it up, step it up, it's alright' had magically transformed into: 'Keep it left ... .Look right ... Step it up, step it up, you're alright'. And magically enough, I didn't have many problems surviving my first day.
