On track (?)

Ok, not much time (still), but I have not blogged a while ago, so I thought to drop at least a couple of lines.

The last, let´s say, 1 month has been just extremely hectic. Three weeks ago I was sitting in the office in Curitiba, Brazil wrappin up my project there and saying good-bye to many people, who I consider true friends now. Then I just hopped onto a bus and left for Sao Paulo, to visit some friends there and do a bit of sightseeing. Also travelled to Rio de Janeiro to learn more about ´Cidade Maravilhosa´.

After leaving this awesome country, which I have been enjoying in the last 8 months, I had the chance to visit home, friends, family etc for 6 days. My time in Hungary was just toooo short! I could not even meet all the people I wanted, I just sort of throw out summer clothes from my suitcase and replaced them with some warm stuffs. Though I feel happy about at least meeting some of my friends, who were even kind enough to prepare some hungarian food for me, which I missed overseas.

Hm, exactly a week ago I checked in to flight to my next destination. (with my boss on board :-)) And here I am.....Stockholm, Sweden. Sure it would be nice to post a picture here, but it just does not work, I tried.

Anyway, first impression: the city is just gorgeous! I have read before, that it is really nice, but to be honest, I just did not believe it until I saw with my eyes. A city on 14 islands, water all over, very nice architecture, ´candle-culture´ etc.....how could that be not nice???

All in all, I´m enjoying my time here (yes, yes, still honeymoon period) and I hope it will last long. Apart from the fact, that each day I´m facing with the core differences between brazilian and swedish culture plus working culture, which makes sometimes difficult to handle things, it´s just awesome to:

* generally ´be´ in the city

* meeting friends at work and at parties, whom I have met before somewhere in the world

* also meeting and getting to know new people

* getting new assignments at work and familiarize with people and my job

* settling in in my new apartman, which I´m sharing with a swedish girl

* taking random walks in the city and discovering it´s cute cafés, shall I say ´fika places´ :-)?

Let´s say, this is enough for today.....
