Another Monday


Today has been a very typical Monday. A Monday in Cape Town.
I set my alarm for 7.30. I don't need more than 8 hours sleep. What happened? I snoozed till 9 anyway. I always tend to do so. When you are your own bosses you can come to office at 11... Nice, but bad for my sleeping habits. So, I ended up sleeping too much and got a head ache the whole day. So stupid. I was supposed to wake up and take a morning walk... Yeah right..
Got to office about 11 and worked for about 4 hours. Then went buying some food ( chicken , tuna, sallad, egg, milk... whatever, trying to eat healthy ok!) and then home to make laaate lunch.
I was supposed to go and meet someone at 5 to talk a bit but she had to cancel so I am now in bed, working a little bit more ( I mean, 4 hours is a bit too little even if we are our own bosses) and then I will watch series.. I LOVE THAT I HAVE WIFI THAT CAN HANDLE TO DOWNLOAD MOVIES/SERIES haha... An episode of a 45 min show takes about 20 minutes to get, not too bad!

Erika is on a 5 day hike, no phone. It's boring to not be able to share my days with him, want to tell him about Saturday night, how tired I was on Sunday and how great "This is Us" is ( best series in a long time) and how much I miss him! And on Friday I go on a Garden Route trip so won't see him until Monday night again.. Well, we did 4 months away from each other last year and then another month in november.. We are ok !

Yeah, that's a Monday for me...

How are you all doing? Not sure anyone will read this tho.. But yeah, if you want to know about my life from 2006 - 2013 this blog tells a LOT! Dig in to the archive, stalkers.. :) 

Me and Cj at work, promoting a young boys caps!

Topics?

I am trying to get a blog written for African Sunrise ( the company I run with my friend CJ) but I just can't find anything that I really wanna write about. It somehow should have to do with volunteering/Internships/Cape Town/community work or whatever. There should be plenty things to write, I know... I just can't find the right inspiration!
I am so used to write like this, about me, my life, my thoughts... I am not sure that is right for the company blog!? Maybe I should just write about my view of Cape Town? I am not sure...

Anyhow.. Life goes on here in Cape Town. I moved back to Obz, and I love it. I do not miss town at all to be honest. Here you have so many nice cafes and restaurants close around, you can walk to all of them, I know people, I just feel comfortable. I can go to town when I need, it's just 5 km away (Uber is 60 rand .. 40 kronor!).. I also stay in the best house since I moved to South Africa, and have the easiest house mate in Kirsten. Calmness.

Me and Erika are good. Very good. And I am so happy. It's been a journey of 10 months. True rollercoaster. Life is a rollercoaster though. I know it. And the downs are the ones that takes you up later. As long as I know we know what we want I am ok. I know! He is a very humble, honest and loving person and I have never felt like this before in my 32 (!) years of being alive.

Visa story.... Well, I am working on it, trying to find a way around it. A way to be allowed to stay in this country! It's amazing how hard it is even though I spent the last 5 years here.. But I will not give up. This is where I wanna be. I know!

So, just an update about my life I guess...

Will end with my favourite pic of me and Erika....
