I survived my first week of work. I’ve accepted a six month contract with Price Waterhouse Coopers in the City (at Chancery Lane). I’ll be doing consultancy work for an energy company, and interestingly enough, working on a piece of software that estimates how much it costs to send employees on assignments to other countries.
It’s a bit sad to be leaving HSBC, but in the end, working with people a few thousand miles away does get pretty lonely. I’m leaving behind an extremely talented team, a great bunch of people, and IMHO the finest online trading site in Canadian brokerage! :) I hope one day we’ll work together again.
As for our cruise, it was brilliant! I can’t say enough good things about Holland America… or Mel’s mum for taking us! Our first time cruising and I guess we’ve been quite spoiled. For ports of call, we visited Rome, Vatican City, Monte Carlo, Florence, Pisa, Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona, Tunisia, Sicily and Naples. A lot of sites to see in 10 days.
It’s nice to be home though, even if it still feels like we’re onboard a ship. Glad I didn’t get pulled over in the first few days back because I couldn’t have managed to walk in a straight line! Nothing like good old terra firma, yeah? |
