England & Greece

Ok so I haven't been the best blogger lately. I've taken a well deserved three week break from everything. But I'm back now! Back in Stockholm and blogging!

It's been a great three weeks! We started off by celebrating my birthday in England. The day started with an amazing bday breakfast that Andy made and after that we got ready to go to London. We walked around and went to a few pubs and then Andy had booked a table at a Jamie Oliver restaurant for the evening, it was so nice! After that it was time for the Kings of Leon concert, which was amazing!

The following Saturday me, Andy, his dad and his brother went to the Bruce Springsteen concert at Wembley, it was such an awesome experience as well!! I remember my mum listening to Springsteen when I was a kid and apparently it's the only thing that made me sleep as a baby :) I haven't listened that much to him as an adult but I got the Greatest hits album a while ago and I just love him now. It was definitely one of the best concerts I've ever been to!

A few days after that it was time to head to Rhodes for week's holiday! It's been so long since I could relax like that! We spent the days by the pool, reading books and having all inclusive food and drinks. Since the food  and drinks were included we spent most of our time at the resort but we did go into Rhodes Town twice, I really liked it there!
I've never done a package holiday before, never done the all inclusive thing. I usually want to do things and see things when on holiday. I think it was good because the purpose of our holiday was to relax and not do anything else. I still think I'd prefer to try new restaurants and bars out on a normal holiday though. Or pay more and go to a big resort with several a la carte restaurants instead of a buffet. Anyway, all in all: amazig holiday!

Anyway, that was a short recap of my three weeks. I'm back as of yesterday and just worked my first day at the school today. It's so nice to have a 8-5 job again! I will mostly be doing grading work this week but will get to meet some students next week and the week after that I'll be teaching SFI alone when the other teachers are on holiday. Should be fun! I think I'm going to like it there!
