Happy Friday: Here is my life. Part 3

Ok, here we go and Peter at the controls again. GOD SAVE THE QUEEN was the new motto when punk entered my life. The Sex Pistols and the Clash were new and I just had to go with it. What the hell, I had holes in my ears, and a few chains hanging from my mouth didn't bother me. Torn jackets and general trash, that was me then and I just had to try it. Now my mum and dad were falling over backwards again, probably thinking "what the hell has he come up with now?". Like Emil in Lönneberga, haha.

Things don't always go as planned

To FREEDOMtravel

We woke up bright and energetic on Sunday morning and thought we'd get a lot done. I have an extra job that I do from home, we are working on various projects related to the blog, and Peter is preparing for his new job. Happy Friday posts with the full story of his life. But it didn't get much done, so to speak ...

Working from home (in the middle of summer)

To FREEDOMtravel

Right now I (Helena) work from home. It's incredibly convenient to have a job that I can do from home and get paid by the hour. At the same time, it is a bit difficult to get time off when many other things are demanding your attention ...

Happy Friday: Best friends

To FREEDOMtravel

Ok, here we go! Peter at the controls! Damn what young people have fitness or is it mine that is lacking, haha. What young people don't realise is that I do more in less time because I know my job than flying around like a new Spiderman in glasses who will fix the whole world in one day.

Combining work, blogging and travelling

To FREEDOMtravel

Travelling and blogging is the best thing we know, and we probably spend just about all free time for these two things. But of course it's important to be able to combine work, blog and travelling...!

Coming home after a long journey: work and everyday life

To FREEDOMtravel

We are now home after our 1 year long trip around Europe. What is it like to come home after a long journey? It may seem like we are just hanging around on the galas and luxury holidays around Rigabut that's not really the case. Coming home after a long journey is also coming back to everyday life, and that's what takes up most of our time ...

Dissertation and dissertation party

To FREEDOMtravel

Finally, it was time for the defence and the defence party! Yesterday I presented my research and the content of my thesis in front of an audience. After the presentation, it was time for the opponent, Dr Craig Melville from the University of Glasgow, to lead the questioning and discussion. He asked tricky but good questions. I was very, very happy with the opponent, but after two hours of questioning in English, I was still exhausted...

Summer jobs in construction

To FREEDOMtravel

We are painting and repainting the houseboat. The panel is pretty much finished (light grey) and most of the windows and linings are also finished (white). But there are still a lot of details left, plus all the metal to be painted: deck, pillars, railing, ladder ... I can't possibly do it all and youngest son Billie is happy that there are summer jobs.

Three hours in Östersund

To FREEDOMtravel

I was supposed to fly from Arlanda to Östersund at 08:00 this morning. But what happens? When I wake up, I get a text message saying "Your flight is cancelled". I was rebooked to 11:10, but that's not much fun when you have to give a lecture in the morning and fly home at 16:00 ...
