Settling in for a week (at least) of rest in Berlin. The final burnout of the trip - six European cities in two weeks while traveling with my sister (which was great) - is over. She flew home today.

So now I'm working on the resume/CV and taking a look at some jobs - checking the usual suspects in my industry, some of them are hiring. When I checked last May mid-trip, there was nothing. So that's a good sign.

I'm always up for recommendations. I'll get in touch with nanne too, although I really need several days of sitting on a couch at the moment. I only realize how run down I am after a slow day.

If you get in touch with nanne, he'll take you to the best whisky bar in Berlin, and the rocknroll sushi near Orangien (platz?) station will lead you farther down the Berlin path.

i could go on.

As we discussed in Paris, there are signs the semiconductors industry is picking up again, but that's after it went down a very steep cliff. Good luck!
