Long time, no see! Loads of travels and Brexit is getting me down!
The last time I posted on this blog, I was back from Brussels and in Oxford, travelling to the UN summit in Geneva. Since then a very awful lot of things have happened!! All exciting and very different, sometimes scary.
Longer than a year ago I last posted on this blog, now I am writing from my holiday back home in Romania as a BAM graduate and also employee in a cool tech company in their Barcelona office!! Oh, how life has its funny ways.
So, to have a quick recap, in May 2015 I attend the WHA youth summit I co-chaired in Geneva, I fell in love with Devon in the summer of the same year and had a long time affair with it until December, visiting monthly or more. In the summer I came back to the motherland for a while in July and then back to the UK for the last leg of my degree, and to write my dissertation. The last year had been somewhat lacking in foreign escapes as I was mostly in the UK, going to Devon and sometimes visiting friends in other cities. Understandable, as I was working almost every single day and also studying for my course, as well as being a mother to "adult" children (I love my little babies though!).
Things got interesting in winter as I began applying for graduate opportunities and got through to all of them, including one for the Government!! Imagine that, a little old Romanian chick, with an English degree and PURPLE!! hair being offered so many opportunities in tech (which is the field I love and have a passion for). In January I had a quick escape home to Romania, and came back to take everything full on! Ended up securing a job for the before mentioned awesome tech gaming company in Barcelona and then coming back to an even better offer that will take me to Scotland first.
All good and fast forward to April, I was almost finished with my assignments and university and had a city escape to see my long time love Fanni, my Hungarian friend that I met in Brussels, and that now resides in beautiful Amsterdam! After that, two weeks later it was time to make the move to sunny BCN, and what a move that is! Fast forward another month, and I am back here, in the motherland enjoying 40C, on holiday!
The next month will be crazy and I don't think I might be able to write about it but I am sure that in the future posts I will go into more depth with my current position and work I am doing but also how my journey in the next company will go! Also, I have 10 flights in the next month so next stops: Bucharest, Berlin, Glasgow, London and then Bournemouth!
The sad part is, BREXIT happened, on the first day of my holiday back home, the news greatly saddens me as I feel that the country that I consider my home of choice does not want me there, or at least half of it. We will see how life goes and what happens but until then maybe it is a good idea to start thinking about getting citizenship.
Until next time, love and light!
