It’s eastern and I’m down in Manila (again - for the past year or so I’ve spent about as much time here as at home).
Today though the city is hardly recognizable, it seems like everyone has left for the country side. The streets that are usually crowded around the clock, with crazy buses that […]
Flew back down to Manila this past weekend, the flight occupying most of it. It’s still the wet season and has rained every day since I got here, haven’t even seen the sun.
Bought a new Camera at Schiphol, where I connected, had a few hours to kill, a Canon IXUS 750. It’s much better than […]
Got back from Åland last night and it was even better than I had hoped for. Haven’t had that much fun for quite some time and it felt great.
We where about 15 persons on a more or less deserted island in the middle of nowhere. Spent the days doing just what we felt like, sunbathing, […]

Been pretty nice, we stayed at the Sunscape Resort, an all inclusive resort about an hour and a half south of Cancun […]
Got back from Islamabad last night after having spend a week or so there working for a newly started telecom operator implementing an interconnect system. Can’t say I really got to see any of the city though, expect the airport, office and hotel of course.
Been working quite long days (some 16 to 20 hours a […]
Just got back from the Pakistani embassy here in Stockholm. Was supposed to apply for a visa and I had all forms ready; application, letter of intent, a formal invitation and a few others. Anyway, as I got there I went stright up the the reception and handed in the pile of forms, a few […]
