O Canada

As kolibri explained in her blog entry, we've made our decision to move to Canada, and I really hoped it would have been an easier choice to make. I feel very, very sad, for the job offer made to me in Finland was tremendous.

Out of respect for the Finnish company and the wonerful people who I negotiated with I won't go into details, but be it sufficient to say that I would have loved to have worked with the team and returned to Finland, and the job would have done wonders to my career. Hardest part for me was to call the team leader and give him the bad news. It made me feel like a traitor, even though I realise this is just normal part of careers of many, many people.

I truly hope that I made the right decision.

Still, the nightmare at my current job has now officially ended. No matter what happens, my quality of life should improve a hundredfold. And as I keep telling myself: Canada is not a penal colony. Should things go wrong, I can always come back.
