about a year............
We thought to slowly plan our travel. The offer of a steady job of four days a week at Kunstgebouw asked however for an direct decision. The offer only applied when I would commit myself for at least two years. Our plan however was already nested in my brain, so unfortunately I could not consider the offer. I however immediately took action and requested for a year unpaid holiday at my regular job, the office art & culture of PJ PARTNERS. I wondered myself what I would do if they would refuse it. In restless nights innumerable scenarios appeared. Fortunately it unpacked very rapidly and I got to hear that it is no problem. Therefore now it must continue! No slow planning anymore and the travel schedule is almost ready. However, fine that it lasts still a year, because it is a lot of research an organizing such a year abroad:-). Only the insurance costs already cause the necessary worries, not to mention what to do with my house, the pension whole, the mail, the car and a lot of other things that will cross my mind.
