Long time...ya

Right, if it goes like this, you can expect 3 more postings this year :-). Anyway, I choose that black template when setting up this blog, because pictures seem to be sooo nice on a black background. Then I had problems with uploading pics and anyway my camera makes simply shitty pictures. So here I am ... on blue.

Just wondering, where these 3 months flew away, since I am in Stockholm...

Hardly remember the first 2 weeks, when I was sitting at my desk continuously asking my bosses for more work. Definitely those times are gone, and I feel good if I can catch up and make some developments...in my free time at work. At the same time, I just realized, that I needed this period to get deeper into my role here, identify the areas where I can make a difference and where I feel, the gaps and the weaknesses of my department are. And this is good. I feel inspired by the things I see "it could be done much better".

Apart from work, life is going pretty smooth here. Without any hidden goal of doing promotion, I have to say, that Stockholm is just gorgeous! Have never ever thought -and the ones, who know me well would agree- that I can enjoy being in a ´cold´city, where the average number of sunny hours during winter can be less than 6 per day! Sure, you can say, I am still on "honeymoon" as far as the cultural integration goes, but I do hope, it is not just that. Though I also must admit, that I cannot wait for the summer, when sunrise will happen at 3.40am and sunset at 22.03 in Stockholm. And if I find that this is not enough, I can still go to Luleå (North of Sweden) to experience sunrise at 1.34am and sunset at 23.34. That must be real fun!

What is also good, that I am in Europe, which opens several opportunities to travel around easily and cheaper. The next destination will be Amsterdam just in 2 weeks, so if you happen to be there (feb 24-26) as well, let me know and have some catch up.

Right, might be enough for now...
