A camel needs to move on

In 2011 I got a camel as a farewell present from my boss after an intership - he said, "You're moving around so much, as a nomad you really need your camel now!" ... after I changed my desk 12 times in 3 months and moved from Aachen to Bombay to Buxtehude and finally back to Aachen.

So, there we go!
Now it's time for Camel to move on - isn't that it's natural instict anyway?
