Wow, I would never have imagined that I wouldn’t get around
to writing another entry for this blog for nearly six months. I absolutely
underestimated what it meant to move to a new city, start a new job and settle
in.
Esch-Sur-Sûre - Luxembourg |
Since starting in my new position in March, this seems to be the first time
that I have come up for air. I have had an amazing journey for the last few
months. I tackled the challenges of suddenly working as an online marketing
professional in a global company, went apartment hunting, explored Luxembourg
City, my new hometown, and went on trips which took me as far as Chicago.
While I will continue to re-orientate myself towards this
new stage in my life for some time, I finally feel like I have reached a stage where I can
pick up my writing pen again. And I can tell you, my fingers have been itching
for digital ink and paper in the last few months. Yet I was lacking the
motivation to sit down and put the right phrases to the stories swirling
through my mind. Instead, I filled notebooks with my plot bunnies, did research
for “Chameleon”, visited friends, met new people, searched for and indulged in
new experiences. It also doesn't hurt that Luxembourg has amazing landscapes and a host of castles to offer. In other words, I just let life take over and realised that I
have been missing out on some things while worrying about finding a job last year.
However, now I’m back. So get ready to hear more frequently
from me. In the next few entries, I will try to fill the gap between my last
entry and this one by telling you about some of my experiences since moving to
Luxembourg. Until then…Arwuar :)
