Unwinding after work at Sweden


This new workweek we have lousy early autumn weather with cool temperatures, rainshowers and a grey, grey sky.

But not long time ago I had the pleasure to spend a (work-)week at our Swedish subsidiary southwest of Stockholm. It was the last great week in late summer with pleasurable temperatures and - in contrast to this week - blue, blue sky and plenty of sunshine.


One of my Swedish colleagues owns a nice cruiser and he invided us to an evening tour through the island world south of Södertälje.


Oh, sorry, that was the wrong boat.

Let's take this one... ;-)


We cruised for approx. have an hour with the boat to approach a very small rocky island...


...named Notholmen.

"Holmen" is Swedish and can be translated to "small island".


While my colleagues prepared a picnic...


...I started my "journey of discovery" over the whole island.
I took me approx five minutes to walk around the rock. ;-)





Sitting in the sun on a small island, talking in peace to my colleagues from Sweden, Denmark and Finland while enjoying the picnic was definitely the perfect way to unwind after work.



 After sunset...


...we left our rocky island again...


...and cruised back to our home port.


That was definitely one of the most relaxing and pleasurable after work parties I had during the last few years! Thanks a lot for this great experience, dear Swedish colleagues!
