Officially a month!

As of September 21st I have been living in Malmö for a month. It's strange because it feels like it has been so much longer! With everything that has gone on with work and life it feels like it should already be the end of October. But work has been work lately. We are almost to the end of our training, meetings, briefings, etc. We get the final details for out departments this week from our sales people and I HOPE that we start planning by Friday, but we will see. Everything seems to move at a slower pace here. At home I would have started planning 2 weeks ago but that's how Europe differs a little. I keep joking that I am going to live an extra 6 years when I'm old because of the laid back lifestyle here. But I'm sure I'll be stressed soon when those deadlines start rolling in.

I've started to make some new friends. Last weekend I hung out with Roma and Elena, they just moved here from Moscow Russia so Roma can take the graphic design position with Common Store Plan. We went to Lund last weekend for the culture festival and to take photos, I have never been to Lund before but it's a very cute town! It's only about a 15 minute train ride from Malmö so I may go there more often to explore. Below is a picture of the university where many international students attend, apparently it's a great school if you are interested in environment studies.

We also attended the annual Malmö artwalk last night, reminded me a little of home. I just wish it were once a month like Seattle!

I couldn't take it any longer and ended up buying a blender. I miss my smoothies, I used to make them all the time at home! After 10 months of not having one I decided it was time. Here is the making of my first fruit smoothie (and yes it was delicious!).

Until next time...

Weather: 60*F and sunny (good day for a bike ride you think?)
