Translation of Gestaltung

The voyage ended finally. I packed my stuffed at around eight o'clock and hurried to the bus-terminal. I had little time left and was afraid that I would miss it and that I had to take the next one.
From that day on we shared dinner. In addition, I explained them, that the reasons for coming to Cuba was photography and the Spanish language, which I wanted to improve after studying for a year.
2 hours later we landed in Hanoi, today's capital. After picking up our bags we started to look for a room to sleep in. The information desk did not really help us so we relied on the Lonely Planet guide.
