Harbor-bound Helge bids a permanenent farewell.
Helge's Farewell Journey to Hamburg
Following many years away, Helge embarks on a sentimental trip back to Hamburg, accompanied by the Wishmobile Lower Saxony. The journey commences in the picturesque Harz region, where the two members of the Wishmobile team, Christiane and Julia, await outside a care home. Alongside his wife Gitti and caregiver Jennifer, they prepare for the journey ahead.
Passersby in the Harz region were treated to an unexpected sight as the Wishmobile's departure from Brocken was a spectacle for hikers. Though initially excited, Helge soon feels at ease with the Wishmobile team, reminiscing about his life's challenges. For Helge, this visit to Hamburg serves as an opportunity to cherish a long-awaited reunion with fond memories of his school days in the city.
Upon arriving in Hamburg, Helge instantly expresses a desire to visit the Elbtunnel, a nod to the city's maritime history. As they make their way through the tunnel, the group marvels at the view of Steinwerder. Before setting off, Helge raises another request for a spontaneous harbor tour. Assured of the Wishmobile's sufficient oxygen supply, the group embarks on the tour, spending nearly two hours taking in the sights.
To conclude the day, Helge and his companions walked towards the Elbphilharmonie with fish sandwiches in hand, admiring the "Notruf Hafenkante" set. Though the details of Helge's past may have been challenging, this journey to Hamburg presents a day filled with cherished nostalgia.
Engaging in a discussion with Christiane and Julia, Helge expresses a keen interest in exploring the intersection of science and health-and-wellness, given his background in the field. As the group indulges in local cuisine, discussing modern lifestyle trends becomes an exciting topic of conversation. Enthused by the vibrant atmosphere, Helge envisions the Wishmobile's future travels to exotic health-and-wellness retreats and unique science exhibitions, transforming travel into a pursuit of holistic learning and wellness.
