Last workday in Namibia

I arrived in Namibia 2 March 2011. Here is my first post (on Swedish) from work. More than four years later…

Yesterday I was very happy when some of my Namibian colleagues took me out for “brunch” at MoJoe’s (an old favourite!). Thanks Erik, Christine and Mikhail! I will miss you…

Later the same day my ICAO colleagues arranged a farewell dinner at Stellenbosch Wine Bar (another favourite!)…

Not everyone ended up on a photo but my gratitude extends to all who came. Thanks for a fantastic evening with many nice words. I have appreciated my time with you and this evening was a great finale.

Today all the last bits were sorted out, the last items from the office packed and I participated in my last meeting. Goodbye DCA!

    Delightful but sad to see your farewell dinner. Jude and I would love to have been there. Love and best wishes to a dear colleague and his delightful, special family as they embark on life’s next chapter.
