Last day at work!

Well... three years have passed veeery quickly.

I cleaned the desk, threw away tones of paper, gave the cactus to my office mate ....
... so the only thing left is to get rid of this sentimental mood....

Guys, thanks for everything!!! And since the world is very small rather than saying Goodbye, I will say: See you!!!!

Project Norway - about to finish phase 3

We are closer nad closer to finish implementation of phase 3 of the project plan (see Project: Norway), that means:
  • 5 working days of my contract left,
  • the removal company is selected and the paper work should be finished next week,
  • applications for permit of residence and work in NO submitted,
  • the IPPI card issued (we can fly outside IT legaly now!),
  • the insurance needed for flying arranged,
  • the flat in Bergen available from 16th of August,
  • will buy the tickets on Monday,
  • the general plan of logistics is ready,
  • first lessons of Norwegian completed (bloody difficult!).
It looks like all the the removal plan could go pretty smooth...
Stress increases anyway...

Venezia

Well, better late than never...
Two weeks ago we went for a weekend to Venice...
Lovely place :-)

A bit of artistic inspiration:

My name ('olenka' is a little ola's name) is of course very popular in Venice ;-p

Piazza San Marco by night, a bit flooded ...

Charm of small channells by night:

Isola San Giorgio, of course by night...

Two photos from the series: find 3 differences:

Moto-angel - this is how they fly!!

Flying day!!!

Wow!
Flying really gives me a lot of positive energy!!!
On Sunday, I had a great flight and managed to be over 1600m for the first time!



Today I did not manage to climb so high, but still have enjoyed the time in the air a lot!
