Nothing in particular
2011-12-30: Looking back on 2011
So 2011 is almost history; for us, it’s another 25 and then some hours, and then the new year will be upon us.
All over the Internet I hear how 2011 has been a shitty year. Well, it hasn’t really been that shitty for me. Personally, I mean.
Work-wise, I have met interesting people, spent 11-hour days working in an office bunker in Tel Aviv, took the opportunity to visit the Church of Nativity in Bethlehem and the most interesting places around Jerusalem (thanks Jackie for the pointer). I went to a lot of other interesting places too. I even made some good money out of all this.
We fulfilled one of our long-held holiday dreams and visited New England during Fall Foliage. A decently-paying job for both of us and a favourable exchange rate made it possible to enjoy a no-holes-barred three-week holiday taking in both New York City and New England and enjoy both tremendously.
Our relationship has been going strong throughout the year (reaching 25 years as a couple just about two weeks ago), and health-wise things have been pointing up more than down.
So all in all, 2011 hasn’t been too unkind to me (or us, rather).
Let’s see what 2012 will bring. We are ready to take it on!
I wish all of you a very happy 2012, may you experience success in all your endeavours!
2010-09-17: Welcome to my new blog!
Finally, I have decided to start an English-language blog in addition to the several German ones I already have. In the course of the coming weeks and months, there will (hopefully) actually be some interesting content where right now there is only this.
So feel free to subscribe to this blog’s feed and be the first to know when the fun really starts!
