Busy, busy; working and moving

Hey...! Long time, no see... No, I didn´t disappear in Chiang Mai even if one can think so as it´s been awfully quiet on this page since I left for my vacation. A quick resumé: I came back two weeks ago, after a lovely holiday. Chiang Mai and Bangkok was lovely as always, and it was great to see my friends again. Since I came back, my life as been really, really busy. On all levels. Too much work, which has made me abandon my ususal commitment to myself not to work on weekends. So I´ve been working weekends, evenings and on holidays. During the little time I´ve had left for my private life outside work, I´ve continued my efforts to find a new apartment. And so I finally did, about a week ago. It turned out it was available from the 1:st of June, which means that the last week has been dedicated to preparations for moving.

All in all, this means that I´ve been incredibly busy these past weeks. I´m very tired, and haven´t found enough energy or inspiration for blogging which explains the silence here. However, I know this far too busy schedule will come to an end by mid-next week. At that point, some milestones will have been reached at work, I´ll be installed in my new apartement and I can start to look forward to the very well deserved upcoming summer vacation in Sweden later this month. So, even if life has been far too busy for my own good the past month, I can see the end of it and I´m still in quite good spirit.

So; about me moving; although I like my old flat, and I´m a bit sentimental about moving out and leaving this neighbourhood, I´m also looking forward to stay in the new one. It´s a lot cooler (temperature wise), which I´m happy for. It has a very good location as well. For those of you who are familiar with Phnom Penh; the flat is on street 294 which runs parallell to and just south of Sihanouk Blv, on the part between Norodom and Sothearos blv. It´s next door to Talking to a Stranger, and just one block from La Luna, Java Café and Hun Sen Park, and from the terrace I can see both Independence Monument and a glimpse of the river. Another good thing is that as opposed to my current flat this one doesn´t suffer from electricity cuts. It´s better furnished and has a wonderful, big terrace with a nice view. I´ll of course post some photos here for you too see later on.

Ok, the mover will be here in two hours so I´d better continue with the packing. Last minute, as always... It´ll probably take a week or so before my telephone and internet connection is installed in my new flat, which means that this blog will have to take another short break. See you later!
