Not much exciting has happened in KZ lately.
I have been home sick. Upper respiratory infection = coughing a lot…
So apart from sleeping 14-15 hours a night, I have been napping and eating and drinking lots of water. Catrin has been taking good care of me! And even made sure the fridge was full of all my favourite food!
I has been sunny days and during the day the temperature has been up above 15 degrees, so the apartment was rather warm, sunny and nice! I slept with the balcony door open during the day, nice! Spring is here!!
I took some nice daytime pictures out our apartment window, I will post them when I remember to bring the big new camera to work!

Back in KZ again!
After a rather pleasant travel day down here we are back in the 28 day work marathon!
K&K decided last rotation that we should spend a night in down town Amsterdam, not just at the airport hotel. So this time we had booked a super duper hotel in the city. We put our budgets together, and ended up at the best hotel I have ever lived at. It was fantastic! Check out www.dylanamsterdam.com it is great!
So after a stroll in the city and a nice lunch at Metz & Co with a nice view of the city, we did some shopping and made it back to our fantastic hotel. We decided to "stay in"! So we enjoyed a couple of drinks in the lobby lounge, and booked a table in the hotel restaurant "Vinkeles" (that has a star in the Michelin guide). So let us just say, it was a fantastic dinner! Full and satisfied (mett og trett…), we retreated to our room and put on our slippers and bathrobes… nice life!
The breakfast was of course also fantastic! So it was with a heavy hart we had to check out and leave at 10. A beautiful and sunny spring day in Amsterdam. Ahh, the great life in the western world… So now you should think we are saturated with beautiful places and can make it for 28 days in this melting mud and rather exhausting place… let's hope so!

The great month of March!
March has been a great month! The 4 weeks off went by too fast, but it was very eventful and fun! Three major cities and a couple of birthday-parties later, I am back in KZ… NY was great, my birthday party at my place was super, London was superduper, and Copenhagen was very nice! And not to forget 24 hours in Amsterdam on Monday/Tuesday, it was super! The Dylan hotel was fantastic, highly recommended! Now 5,5 weeks in KZ is on the agenda. 4 weeks working and 1,5 week in Almaty and surrounding areas/mountains/national parks!
