I spent last weekend in Copenhagen/Sweden and it was something magic about being touristy so close to home. It was also well needed to be off work for four days - I feel all the energy coming back to me again and the fighting spirit being a bit restored after some tough months.
Our super-cool (and very green) hotel room in Copenhagen (upper picture). It was a great hotel which I can recommend to anyone that likes something that is a bit more boutique and a bitt less Scandic. Being a real tourist i Copenhagen includes, of course, walking along the water in Nyhavn (lower picture).
The time in Sweden was also great, got to see the family and got a sneek-preview of Swedish summer (blue sky, sun, beach & ice cream). Below is a picture from the beach in Åhus.
Anyway - so after a great four day weekend (including celebrating my birthday), I am back at work. Still a lot of hard work to be done before September, but we are getting there and it's exciting. I must say that I am still stunned every day that I am doing something real, something with an impact. After having spent 17 years in school, you get very distant from reality and it is easy to forget that there is a world beyond papers and exams and the liking of your teachers.
I like the world out there - it pushes you boundaries, it challenges you and it makes you to a better person while doing it. It's not until there is something real on the line, something that is impacting not only yourself but also other people, that you can realize your real capabilities and potential.
