A lot has happened. I work a lot. I’m happy, but also stressed. Now I’m leaving for Easter holidays. I’m lecturing (!) at a theme night for a big housing company here in Sweden. They have a theme night about female architects and the changing tasks for our profession in general (Phew! I'm nervous!). Then I’ll go visit friends and hopefully feel free and a little relaxed for a couple of days. But, I don’t want you to forget me or who I am.
