New moon of December 2025
I have provided some hospitality to visitors from southern Germany, as best as my weak mind and feeble body could.
With the help of a few wonderful and illustrious women, I managed to serve them with salad, and lentil soup, and pizza, all of which were vegan or at least vegetarian. They left behind a reasonable amount of local currency, as a reciprocal gesture.
“We are big eaters,” one of them said, cheerily.
They requested information and I looked up some online resources to furnish them with. The following is a non-exhaustive list:

After the night ended, one of their party sent a message: “So nice to meet you. Let us keep in touch.”
And so concludes one chapter in the book that is their life-sojourn. It is my undeserved privilege to have been part of their story, which has had many twists and turns, I am sure.
