I find it interesting to follow the financial situation worldwide, and even more looking at the situation for Telenor. For the last couple of weeks, Telenor has had its share of front page stories in Norway. Most of them due to the expansion plans into India.

My journey in Asia is over for now, and after one year as a trainee in Telenor I am back in Oslo and Norway. At least for a while. About one year ago, I moved to Stockholm, and six months ago, the destination was Kuala Lumpur. Living abroad has been a good experience, and it has given me a taste for more.

Malaysia is truly in the heart of Asia. I love traveling, so in my spare time I have had the chance to explore a bit around the region. Kuala Lumpur is a great hub for seeing South East Asia and I have spent many weekends experiencing this part of the world.

I have posted some pictures, so have a look…

The trainee-life in Stockholm has been a good one. It has been very exciting, informative and developing; but also stressful and confusing at times. I guess that’s all part of being a trainee and moving to a new place. I have now worked at Canal Digital in Stockholm for more than four months. Somehow, that sunny October day when I packed my bag and got on a plane from Oslo to Stockholm seems so close, and yet so far away. The days and weeks have come and gone incredibly fast, and in another two months my stay here will be over. But the journey doesn’t end just yet. My next stop on the trainee-road is Kuala Lumpur, in the beautiful country of Malaysia (- Truly Asia!).
