Skype Meeting and Snow outside the Window

Just finished a lovely Skype meeting with colleagues and mentors in the Music App project. Homework until today was to complete a Strength Insight Psychology test. Very interesting and fun to learn more about oneself in this way. 

Otherwise it is very exciting to be on our way, can’t believe that I will have the coolest music app for me and others to enjoy, hopefully within a few months from now. I know I will love this app, but can of course not be sure that anybody else will. Though I guess there should be!

At the same time today was a really wintry windy day with snow fall making the windows the perfect cozy backdrop for my meeting (yes.. the meeting started when it was still daylight outside:).

Back in Sweden – and two weeks in Stockholm

Oscar Carl Henrik

Subway ride in sunset back from this week’s work location just outside the city center of the capital of Sweden.

Freezing but beautiful. It’s nice to be back in good old Sweden. Very nice to be able to hang out with my sister and brother and their families and blessed to have a place to stay in Stockholm.
Work continues and I have the opportunity to work “in office” of one of my customer organizations. As much fun as it is working from home or from another country, it is also very rewarding, at least for a change, to meet the people you are working with and actually handle some physical goods.

This weeks challenge… sending out around 2000 letters to members of one of my customers organisations.

Coworking Space in Jomtien

Being a digital nomad can be a lonely business. This I have heard many times in YouTube videos etc, of people living this lifestyle. And I totally understand why. You work and travel. And you can’t bring all your friends.

As simple as that. Often times you cannot bring any of your friends. I have had this in mind even before I decided to try this out for myself.

One great thing that I think will help a lot to cope with this challenge is the fact that there is now already tenth of thousands of people who live this lifestyle. And that means that there are a lot of people looking for others to hang out with.

The online communities is a really cool way to socialize and exchange ideas. And the coworking spaces is another. Yesterday I went to check out the Anchor coworking space in Jomtien. I was lucky enough to find a guy outside who was using this space already for several months and that could tell me all about it.

Before returning back to the hotel, I decided to take my first swim in the
ocean for this trip… Guess the pool is very convenient.. But there’s something special with the beach and the ocean, I have to admit.

Best Skype meeting ever 

Oscar Carl Henrik

Just had the most professional and effective Skype conference ever in one of my projects. Feels good. The picture shows my favorite computer microphone that I had to fix at one point, hence the tape..now on the other hand I would say that it is pretty much unbreakable. 

Otherwise a pretty hefty headache that have persisted throughout the day. Better take it easy the rest of the evening. For a Saturday I have been quite productive today. Rock on everyone.
