It was crazy week!

You can't even image how was it passed and how many thing had happen.

But from the very beginning...

My trip here was very ok, long but without any problems and unexpected situations :) I landed in Manila on 21st at 22:35 :) AIESEC members were waiting for me to drive me home. They had small problems with finding the proper way but finally we manage.

The first thing that I felt after landing was temperature and humanity! After few minutes I was totally wheat! So now I'm in the process of adjusting to the weather condition, it is hot everyware but also almost everywhere you have air conditioning in my office as well but because of that it is even to cold :)

but back to my arrival...
In my apartment some people were waiting like interns and my boss :) after short welcome we went for some bear to local pub. It was very nice experience and from the very beginning I felt like home. We were back home around 2:30 a.m. and around 9 a.m. we went to work :)

My work here is very interesting but also very challenging. I have to deal with 3 different companies which are part of the Holding. The HQ (Mike and Flo) are very demanding owners :) but thanks to that I know that I can learn a lot :)

Atmosphere at work is very very friendly almost like in family, everyone know each other and spend time after work. What I definitely like is fact that we have kitchen and from Monday till Friday we are getting breakfast, lunch and dinner which is very very good. During weekends we are going to eat something in the city.

I’m living in Kingwood these are 2 towers around 30 floors. My apartment is on 24 floor. At this moment we are 3 there (me, Sonia from Romania and Christin from Germany) but in 1 month Christin is finishing her internship so we will stay 2.
From the more interesting fact about my flat :) we have swimming pool :) and some friends like: ants, lizard or cockroaches :) first when I saw them I was scared but know I got used to you can find them everywhere.

My first week past so fast… It was very intensive week and challenging. I’m sure that during this year a lot will happen and I’m looking forward to it.
