U.K. First Week

I don't have access from the hotel to the internet, so I've had to batch everything up and find a decent time at the office (7pm on a Friday seems to work) to post these.

The Hotel Bar

This is where Sejin and I spend our evenings. The beer is good and the staff is very friendly.

Football
The European Cup is currently being played over here. We've been watching Spain kill the competition. The final is this Sunday.

Office Space
This is where we work. It's a completely open space. I find it really annoying.

Office Commute
This is the road we walk down every day to work. It's only a fifteen minute walk to the office. It helps to wake up when your body thinks it's 3:30am.

Weird
Some things are just a little different over here.

Money
Money over here is pretty annoying. They have a coin for everything, so everywhere I go my pockets are jingling. Back home I'm all about the plastic. Here's stinky noisy coins.

Travel Partner
This is Sejin. So far he's having a harder time with jet lag then I am, but otherwise he's keeping me sane.

Real English Pub
Actually got out of the hotel the other night with some chaps from the office. The five handles you see at the bar were five different hand pumped English Ales. Quite tasty they were. We sat outside the pub and nearly froze to death. Sejin and I then retreated to the warmth and comfort of our hotel bar.

Dinner
They have a hot chocolate machine over here too, so Sejin and I are able to continue our tradition of working late with hot chocolate dinners.
