Almost time for a holiday!

Random non-rant non-work related post! In slightly under 2 weeks I shall be flying off on a long-awaited holiday. It will be my first trip to Europe.

I am actually starting to look forward to it again. For what seemed the longest time I endured the slump between initially deciding, booking tickets and looking into it, and reaching the final countdown. I’ll be taking it easy spending a week or so in Germany, a week in Denmark, hopefully get to skip to Norway for a day or two before making my way to London to catch a flight over to Iceland.

The tail end of the holiday in Iceland is intended to be the icing on the cake! I shall be geeking it out at EVE Fanfest 2007 and actually staying in a Hotel for that part. The rest of it is, unfortunately, going to be done on the cheap! Hostels and dodgy backpackers here I come.

Luckily I shall be traveling with a friend to help sort out the confusion. At least if I’m sleeping in the gutter somewhere, I wont be alone :)

In other news, I have resigned from my job of the last 6.5 years as Lead Programmer on a variety of titles for Sidhe Interactive. I guess at some point everyone needs a change, and this holiday is intended to be the much-needed break between the old and new. The ‘new’ in this case has yet to be decided! I finish up work the day before I fly out for my European holiday… its going to be a hectic next couple of weeks.
