    Back again

    It has been more than a year since my last entry and I think I need to update this blog.

    Time has passed very quickly a lots of things have changed in the last months. I’m going to start where I left it in July last year and try to summarize what I’ve been doing the last year.

     

    First of all….yes!, I did got my driving license and I got also a job!. I passed my driving exam early October and in November I started my first job. Finally I didn’t go to London and I went to Dublin for several reasons but the most important one was that Chris (my flatmate from Finland) was there. So, now I live with him in a nice house in the north of the city.

     

    Dublin is very good; there are tons of concerts and live music bars which was something I really missed in the last years. The city is quite young and multicultural, there are people from everywhere specially polish, Spanish and Italians.

     

    The job is great, very flexible and interested, although is still a job and is not as fun as playing guitar… I work as a Software Engineer for IBM. I’m learning a lot here and the IBM flexible policy allows me to travel a lot without any inconvenience.

     

    During the last 8 months I’ve been in many countries. I just came back from my main holidays in Cuba which was a great experience that I would recommend to you. I also was in Sweden, Belgium, Latvia, Poland, Hungary, Spain, Slovakia, Austria, Italy and Croatia in the last months. My next trip is to Spain next months and Denmark in November. If anyone wants to join let me know.

     

    As many of you know, I have a band here in Dublin with just two members. We released a demo in July and is available in www.myspace.com/losthorizonband

    You can download the 5 songs in that site and you can leave any comment if you want to. Right now we are learning new songs (covers) and we are planning to start playing live in October. We also expect to release a small demo with two songs at the end of the year titled “The distant sun”.

     

    I will start uploading pictures again soon. Sorry for not keeping the site updated but I was very busy with the job/band and also I’ve been having lots of troubles getting internet connexion here.
