I’m going away to the camping site in the German Eifel for a while. Don’t know when I’ll be back yet. When I get bored, I guess.

Maybe I’ll leave a post or two, if I happen to find an Internet cafe or so. Otherwise, I’ll see you all when I get back.

Please try not to mutilate this site. I’d like to find it as I left it when I get back.

As of 17.00 hours today (CEST), I’m unemployed. I’m no longer a taxi driver, which was my job for the past five years or so. So now what?

Well, some well earned vacation, that’s what! It’ll be a non-payed vacation, that’s a minor downside. On the other hand, I’ve got some money saved up sitting at the bank. And since I’m kind of an anti-materialistic person, I don’t actually bother living on it until it runs out.

When it does, I’ll probably apply for a job as truck driver. I don’t have a trucker’s license yet, but the demand for truckers is currently so high, that companies are happy to pay for my training and the license itself. I’ll probably even be able to negotiate some salary during the training.
