Departing/Arriving

Yesterday was the day of carrying luggage, boarding a flight and arrive to a place about 2500 km further north, a place with fog, maybe 3 hours less of sunshine, and 10 degrees less of temperature... I must be crazy...

Maybe I should start a time counter, tracking the days until the next time I will be able to look the Sun in the eye again.

The provisional apartment I'm staying for the first month doesn't know much about personality, neither do the other 6 neighbouring blocks of buildings.

Dropped my luggage and went shopping. Then I got a Swedish SIM card for the phone, 50sek (with  500Mb Internet, not bad at all) now I can browse the web and chat with H. Things suddenly started feeling a bit better.

Then went in town to look for shoes, didn't find any, but found my favourite bakery (St. Jakobs).  Miam miam, had filter coffee and a cinnamon roll, delicious.

I was feeling better, went back to the apartment, cooked some pasta, and fixed the cable TV. Things were feeling comfortable little by little.

The first post is probably the hardest to write

This post marks the beginning of this blog, a place where I will write about my experiences in Malmo.

Yep, I am moving to Malmo tomorrow and that will be, yet another, important change in my life.

I am moving there because of work, the contract states a permanent position and for now it is difficult to see that far into the future. So yep, I should be staying in Malmo for some indeterminate amount of time.

I don't know much about Malmo, so far I've put my feet there only two times ...that's not much.

Everything will be new to me, so I will probably write about some of the places I will visit, some of the things that are there to be done, and of course most of the things I will do.

I will probably complain about things, things that I will not fully understand and I will probably write about those same things once I understand them a bit better.

I will maybe write about some of the problems I will face and some of the solutions I will find to make my life easy.

I am sure it will become quite a mix of ideas.

It's not easy to leave, but with every departure I have learned to better appreciate certain details of life.

It's not easy to arrive to a new city without a sense of direction, but discovering new places has always been fascinating and made me better understand the world around me.

Around these feelings there will remain, I hope, another experience to make my life richer and make me more complete.

Hugs to all the friends,

Many special kisses to my girlfriend H that will come in my heart.
