It's official!!!

I've got a job!!!
From next monday I will be working in the Radiology department in Luebeck. Bit soon for finding an appartment and getting organized, but it means I will get paid soon ;-)
So if anyone travelling Northern Germany wants to stop by, let me know.
Luebeck has an old city center with lots of old timbered houses. And I think the christmas market is quite famous, I went there once and it was really pretty. Also it's close to the Baltic Sea with some nice beaches.
Tomorrow I have to go to the dentist again, they will open my bone to finally get rid of that infection. Aaahhhh!!! Am a bit scared!

I've had my first job interview yesterday. Not sure how it went, they'll decide on Monday who will get the job. Tomorrow I will spend the day in their department to see if I really want the job and to boost my chances to actually get it!
Earlier today I got a phonecall from another hospital I applied for, this one in Bremerhaven on the North Sea, and they invited me for an interview on Tuesday. So if I don't get the job in Lubeck I have another chance. The hospital there is a bit better, they cover everything you need for the specialization, but the city is not as nice and it's not as close to Hamburg as I'd like to be!

Time for an update

It's been quite a while I know, but I've been busy, applying for jobs, visiting friends and seeing my dentist a few times too many for my taste. I have a really annoying root infection, that doesn't wanna go away, even with huge loads of antibiotics. So I'll probably need surgery. Really looking forward to that!
Jobwise it's looking pretty bad, at least in Hamburg. I applied at every hospital and no one has a vacancy for radiologists :-( But next week I'll have an interview at a big hospital in Luebeck, which is only about 60km from Hamburg and really close to the beaches. So wish me luck!!!
The weather over here is bad!!! Summer never came and now it's getting cold, the leaves are turning yellow and red, and it's raining all the time. I wish we could send some of it to Australia.
I will try to post here more often to keep you all updated with my life and I hope one or the other will leave me a comment to let me know someone is actually reading!
