Life is good...

...that´s what I have been thinking the last few days. My traineeship at the Swiss Post finished last Friday. On one hand I was a bit sad to leave: I really got to like my work colleagues I had fun with them- although they were very different from me: much more settled, but also with not as much drive and energy as I had somehow had hoped- I was missing the AIESEC environment at times. My work was quite challenging, which I appreciated a lot, because it made me stretch. But the very best thing was that I was able to apply so much of what I had learnt in AIESEC: sometimes I even thought, that without these experiences I wouldn´t have been able to do all the things I did.

On the other hand I´m glad it is over mainly for two reasons: one I have time to study for my upcoming exams and two I have time to go on holiday. And that´s what I´m doing right now: I´m thoroughly enjoying my holiday in Austria! Finally I managed to catch up on some sleep, finally I have time to read my very exciting book (I plan a separate post on only that one another day) and finally I have time to do sports again. Yesterday I went for a long run to the lake in the morning, then in the afternoon I did a 30km bicycle tour up and down all the hills around Mariazell together with my uncle. My butt really hurts now, but of course that is not something I can admit as for today we have plan to climb a mountain...My uncle just arrived in the door, so I gotta hurry to get my trekking boots on...

we are not at IC- but are we are still having fun!

Sarah, Nadja,Sabi,Joelle, Tobi and me are having the official- "we are not at IC, but we are still having fun party" :-)

But I want to mention, that I was the only one fighting for the idea of sponteously driving to Warsaw- I really gave my best- but other people too Swiss! ;-)

Check Sarah's blog for more pictures tomorrow...

Good night from the Swiss MC office :-)
