We landed!.

The lab has officially started, and ALPS was welcomed with snow in the Saarland.

A few renovations still have to happen, but I am optimistic that April can be a realistic start in my new lab rooms. Currently we have offices for PhD students. We decided on some more plans for the lab layout with the technical support here.

For the first two weeks, we visited the other must-see sights here: the Saarschleife, Völklinger Hütte, and Luxembourg. We ended with the Night of the Profs, a party where professors DJ.
