2010 in review and a good start on 2011

Firstly, Happy New Year to everyone.

You will notice some changes for this upcoming year's blog, due to numerous requests.;
Yes, we will try to write in English
We will change the layout
We will have quarterly reviews.
Now to the first of these reviews,
2010 was an interesting year. We came to Kelowna without knowing too much about this city except of it is close to a great ski mountain, called Big White. The first few months we stayed here and there, bought a car after 2 days and eventually moved in to a lovely couple with two dogs in the posher area Lower Mission. Pernilla found a good job as a Graphic Designer and Jan began to pursue a career within coaching soccer. We both really enjoy our time, mainly because the weather (4 seasons), great summers, surroundings and skiing, as well as the positive atmosphere and kindness we receive form everyone.
Now to the highlights of the year,
Skiing/boarding 4 months of the year.
Watching Rihanna, Kesha, Lady Gaga and Bryan Adams live.
Broadening our network.
Growing as persons through taking exciting opportunities and not playing safe.
River Rafting in Adams River appr 3 hrs from Kelowna.
Celebrated birthdays in Las Vegas and Vancouver.
Wine tastings in several of the more than 140 vineyards in the Okanagan Valley.
Discovering parts of Beautiful British Columbia.
And much more.
After recharging batteries in Sweden with friends and families, we are now back in our daily routines. After two horrible days, the first where I tended to forget everything everywhere, followed by a stressful day for Pernilla, she has finally bought her dream bag and now we are pursuing even more opportunities. As an example, Pernilla might get into a managerial position at her job, while I am called for an interview as a coach for a senior team in Kelowna.
We have been up to Big White once already, and today we decided to take a quiet day where Pernilla is finally cooking her 3-course dinner which was promised to me about a year and a half ago. Yummy (hopefully;))
We wish you all the absolutely best year in 2011, and look forward to some visits during this year!
