Coming back to Washington a week ago meant getting started with all my personal and professional projects. At work, I have several interesting and exciting tasks to look forward  over the next months. And outside of work – well let’s just say that after a bit of a dormant period, I am back in my normal pace! This means continuing the part-time MSc program in Food Policy that I am doing (my second MSc since I already have one in Economics), continuing with my Romanian studies at Lund University (though I think this will be the last semester of Romanian studies for me), and getting started again with dance classes and the Swedish Choir that I sing in. (We already have five or six performances booked before Christmas.) My calendar for the fall is already full and admittedly, I am a little stressed, but I also like having things to look forward to!
