Sorry for the absence

First of all, I am shocked and sorry to see how long it has been since my last post. I kind of thought it had been two or three weeks at most. I guess time really flies when you're having fun...

Seriously, the last two months have been absolutely insane. I had to finish all the school work in Sweden (write papers, go to seminars, prepare oppositions, take exams...) and prepare my move back to Finland. Then I had two days here to move into the new apartment, before starting my summer internship in new project with new people. And rest of the June has gone to sorting out all paper work, unpacking, meeting friends and family and just generally adjusting.

All in all, it has been ten times more stresful than I anticipated. I guess I thought coming back home would be effortless compared to moving abroad but actually it is every bit as difficult. Except that here I can communicate in my native tongue, whereas in Sweden I was stuck with my fourth strongest language.

Anyway, now my life begins to be back on track so hopefully I will be posting more regularly from now on. Thanks for everyone who has visited and left comments in the past weeks!
