Finally our big bosses made their minds and released our destiny for the next few months and according to this from January until end of March I’m going to work in a rainy Britain, and more specifically in a wonderful place (=village? :s) called Hemel Hempstead - half an hour away from London.
Must admit that I’m pretty excited about it since I’ve never been to UK yet but mostly that finally after almost 2 years people around me are gonna speak the language that I actually understand and able to express myself… And especially after 4 months of working around Swedish people speaking their “lovely” Nordic language all the time, I consider it as a total blessing – UK being my first work destination.
Besides obviously I’ve already got plenty of exciting plans, trips and meetings to do. Curly Katya was planning to go to London straight after Russian Christmas, Pavlik promised to pay a visit during Chinese New Year (hell knows when is it, February? :ss) and as Paris is just 30min away by EasyJet Nico’ll visit me during the weekends as well (right, right, right?!:).
And now about my Xmas holidays plans! Sometimes it could be quite nice to work for a Swedish company as I have more than 2 weeks of holidays for Christmas.
So me and Nico are leaving the fabulous village of Jönköping on 21st of December to start the exciting journey to the cheaper and sunnier countries. The plan is to drive by car all the way down to Paris having stops in Bremen&Cologne&Luxemburg for sight-seeing and in Thionville for getting some oysters and Christmas spirit.
26th – 30th of December – oh, Paris…..!!!!!!!
30th December – 3d of January – hola, Madrid J)) We’re gonna crash into the hospitable house of Cabronsito (aka Jesus) to eat 12 grapes during NY Eve and explore Madrid’s nightlife.
4th – 7th of January – back to wonderful Paris – cheese, wine and blinking Eifel Tower J
7th of January – Paris -> London -> Hemel Hemstead – back to working life….
So if anybody’s going to be around those cities during Xmas – give me a call ;)
And some pics from Pierre’s visit to Stockholm few weeks ago…
Xmas market in Gröna Lund
Night in GK
Wirströms – old and lovely Irish pub in Gamla Stan – and most of the crowd is French – can you imagine how scared I was?! :)))
