Henrik in Seattle

Three weeks ’till takeoff

August 18th, 2005

In three weeks, at the 7th of September, begins what will no doubt be the biggest adventure of my life so far! I'm leaving Sweden for at least nine months of [studying->http://www.washington.edu/] and traveling in Seattle, USA. Hopefully [Martin->] will come over from Hong Kong and join me for an old-fashioned road trip sometime next summer. If I'm lucky, I manage to find a computer related job at [some software company->http://www.microsoft.com/] nearby and/or get the possibility of doing my Master Thesis in the US.

My journey will begin with a [12 hour trip->Flying to Seattle] to Seattle. When I arrive, my first mission will be to find an apartment or a room somewhere near campus. I also have a bunch of things to do all over campus, registering with all sorts of departments and offices. Americans seems to love [bureaucracy->].

This post is the very first post in this [travel blog->About], most likely there will be more. This is it for the moment, though. Over and out.
