Hello my fellow Europeans!
In case you haven’t decided which party you should vote for (and you should vote for one) in the European Parliament election (July 4th/5th/6th/7th), here comes your geek tool to find out …
The EU Profiler (blessed by the European Union Democracy Observatory) is your solution!
Aaahhhh … what a day … I finally managed to go snowboarding for the second time this season … hmm … beautiful place (Verbier) and beautiful weather … but now I am destroyed …
Great day that was almost not going to happen, since my board was caught in a basement where everyone that had a key to it was gone over the weekend … man … but luckily Esben was so nice to borrow me his board to save the day … thanks man!
[Update]
I just remembered to mention that I even jumped out of the lift to get the real off-piste experience … rock on!
The street sign we picked up in Sweden last year was just the first step. This year we’re going for the real thing … the summer holidays are fixed and we’re going to South America, Peru and Bolivia to be precise. From the Pacific, over the Andes, into the jungle of the Amazon, to lake Titicaca and the highest capital in the world.
Hmm … I am so much looking forward!
Just a short sum up of the holidays that passed by in the last couple of weeks …
Having left Geneva on Dec 19th I dropped Johanna and Tom somewhere north of Frankfurt and after a nice evening, a good night’s sleep I continued towards Berlin …
During the days before Christmas I (unfortunately) entered the Christmas shopping world, which immediately took away the last bit of joyful anticipation towards the holidays!
Anyway after these trouble I tried to enjoy my first appointment free Chistmas eve and almost failed since I had to notice (for the first time) that shops close at times like 13h or 15h on that day … which is bad in case you need something urgently at about 18h …
Thanks to the Indian’s (who do not celebrate at this day) we managed to fill up my new dehydrating machine :) with fresh fruits and vegies in the end.
The rest of the holidays was quite relaxing and nearly as expected …
After this trouble we (being seven and a half friend and me) drove out to the Swedish outback to spend a couple of days, including New Year’s Eve, in a hut (thanks to Esben, greetz).
Besides some troubles with fuses, missing heating, dead animals and overflowing shit-tanks everything went well and we had a great time …
And now I am back for work in Zeuthen (the small village close to Berlin) …
Yesterday, I finally managed to go skiing (or better snowboarding) for once this year (and unfortunately maybe also for this season).
I went to Les Diablerets with some friends (greetz) and spent a whole day in the boots … ;)
Great fun even though we left Geneva at about 6:30 am!
We rounded off the day with a nice dinner (actually I had another one with my roomies afterwards … also very nice).
