What I've been up to in the last year

Ok, here is just a quick summary to see where I left off and what I'm writing about.

Jauary - Topped up hours to work full time as senior analyst quality management at Computacenter Iberia.
February - trip to France with a relationship-changing experience
March - Got an award for best performance 2013 - rookie in my job and decided that it was taking up to much of my time. Where's the music?
April - New opportunities coming up - new position or new life concept?
May - started my Spanish self-employment: working in Germany
June - Started to go running
July - Moved to Madrid, stayed with Rubén's parents for a month. Then trip to London to see my Canadian host family again after ten years!
August - Trip to Wuppertal, my home town. People are nice, the weather is nasty. Seriously doubt I will ever want to go back.
September - New flat in Alcorcón and the first routines in the new area - meeting new friends, going to blues sessions, going out with Madrileños
October  - My first race on Halloween - 6.66km!
November  - Getting projects started for 2015, making contact with augmented reality and Thermomix cooking
December - a whole month in Thailand with my sister. Never been there, no intention of going back.

If you want to know anything about any of the topics, let me know, I might write about it!

As I don't want to bore you with many details, I will show you the video instead: Funny how in the end, I am left with only the good memories.
