A few quotes

 "Plant your garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers." —Jose Luis Borges

"Ask yourself if what you're doing today will get you closer to where you want to be tomorrow."—Anonymous

"Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here, we should dance."—Anonymous

When you move from one country to another you have to accept that there are some things that are better and some things that are worse, and there is nothing you can do about it. – Bill Bryson

Loving life is easy when you are abroad. Where no one knows you and you hold life in your hands all alone, you are more master of yourself than at any other time. – Hannah Arendt

By contrast, you might find yourself torn, knowing you want to be in your expat home but you miss your home country enough to think you could move back there and be happy. It’s easy to see all the good things and none of the bad, just like a holiday in any other location.

Thoughts in my notebook

I started to write my notes and thoughts in my notebook. Maybe some day I will have the opportunity to write a book about my path in Germany and EU

Paredon Beach - Surf Camp 🏄

Be like water my friend, be like water.

And go with the waves !! The nature teaches me that, Do not force things!

Do whatever It makes you feel GOOD and happy 🙋

- I got a Tatto 💪

- I got a Job in Germany 🥨

- Soon I will get my German test ✍

Go as long as you don´t stop !

Sense of belonging

 Again, thanks for the "Kundigung" - sarcasm- 

Do not forget, enjoy the way and learn it. That´s the life, exactly! At least in Germany

How do you feel? They made you believe that, you are qualified with the Interviews, Feedbacks and Good Welcoming so that later after two months working: Hey Mister, you don´t go anymore with us !!!
Very hard feeling ! You do not belong to us ...

- Zugehörigkeitsgefühl
- Sense of belonging
- Sentido de pertenencia 

 

Life goes on

My first post in this year 2021 and my goals are becoming true 😃

Write down resolutions ? Hm, I think it´s more worth it to be a doer or maker. To make it happend ! At the bottom of , we know what we do need to do for making our resolutions happend. We "only" need to keep the inner motivation, strength and discipline.

Suddenly I took again my book about "The art of the good life" and read the section about Expectations in our lives and how to manage them, is part of the good life and the author recommend organizing the thoughts: (1) "I have to have it" - represents necesity-, (2) "I want to have it" - a preference, a goal - and (3) "I expect it" - expectation - Interessting !!!

Some of my wishes are:

• Keep taking courses and trainings to master my career as a Software Engineer 💻
• Get my first International Certification 📰
• Go to the beach often and practice Surf ✈🏄
• My German language B2 certification, I am working on it 📑
• Visit my family and friends 👪👫

In the long term, I would like to achieve :

• Provide IT services and solutions 👔
• Have my own Training Organization / Business 💙
• Have my own Reisemovil 🛺
• Have my own Dog 🐶
• Have my own House 🏠
