Ha, how apt the blog title turned out to be. My WordPress blog-writing phase was somewhat short lived but maybe now is a good time to start the resurrection…
Everything is different now.
Berlin is no longer my home town; the German neighbours have been replaced by Brits, and predictable weather has been replaced by the joy of not knowing what is going to happen next – wind, rain, sleet, hail, sun – the only certainty is you will most probably regret not bringing an umbrella.
I have fitted back into life in GB a treat and truly love being so close to the family. Leeds is our home town of choice and offers the compact centre that Berlin lacked, as well as sufficient nice-looking buildings, and some ace arcades providing a handy roof for when the showers come.
I have adapted to the freelance life with ease and am more than happy to be able to get up when I want and to do as little or as much work as I please. Happily discipline and organisation are two of my strong points, and my desire to acquire some kind of financial security is motivation enough to work pretty hard most of the time.
Besides the day job, there is a new project underway that has great potential. I have always wanted to have my own business and as it is a dream shared by Ragil, it seems like the best next step.
The launch is planned for early June. I will keep you all informed

Welcome back, your absence was sorely missed – but no hard feelings.
I ran into a fellow ICEUSer on Saturday living and working in Heidelberg. Was rather a surprise because he works literally 50 meters away!

Comment by bectrillion Monday 11 May 2009 @ 4:45 pmI know how the resurrection thing goes. I’m in the act of forcibly resurrecting mine. Hope that goes well for you!
Enjoy Leeds! I’m an American but a complete Anglophile. Been over twice, but only to London, Windsor, and Edinburgh. I would love to see more of the country, though (live there… possibly…?)
