Visiting Brazil

So, it is finally official... well, I still don't have a ticket, but after weeks of begging and organizing and making people find a way around stupid rules, we all together found a way and now I am officially allowed to fly to Brazil for the wekk 23rd to 29th of March in order to attend a couple of regional meetings where I will be able to meet my future boss and colleagues. It also finally gives me a chance to visit the place where I will be moving in a month and a bit... So I am very excited about going really, though, I am a little scared as well... but who knows... its gonna be great, I hope, and why shouldn't it be?! Hahaha, yeah, I am really kinda trying to keep me on the positive road here... not that easy all the time...

So I received most of my vaccines last week, but I gotta go back to get a second and third rabies vaccine, but it isnt just rabies: it's against vampires :P That's what they call the little bats that live in the countryside and regularily dive down onto cows and sheep in order to push their teeth into their meat and to suck out some blood. And well, sometimes, the cow turns out to be human... ooops... kinda scary, isn't it?

That's all there is to say about Brazil for now, but I will tell you more as soon as I have actually been there ... :)

And, just as a little sidenote, I couldn't resist to open the chimney and to blow air into it to get the fire a little more going, and as a result I have to clean the floor now... ah well...
