First Days in London

Officially arrived in London after a 9 hour flight on Air Canada to start a new chapter in my life. Surprisingly, the flight went rather smoothly with check-in, baggage and take-off, but I had a completely nutty S.African guy sitting next to me that kept screaming and freaking out. On top of that, he would eat his ice cream and salad dressing with his finger and kept getting it all over me! disgusting...

When i finally landed, i realized i forgot my SIM card in Vancouver and since it's a Bank Holiday here for Friday and Monday, I'm going to feel completely naked without a phone. However, i did manage to head out to the Comedy club with my good friend Jorge who I taught with in Wuhan China and then met up with the INSEAD crew (Fahd, Alida, Vito, Nishta, Harvonne, Thomas, Fabio, Premjit...) at some club in Oxford Circus (Movida?). Man, it's like school never ended with sooo many INSEAD people here!

Anyways, I will be staying at the Hotel Hilton in Paddington until my temporary Google flat is ready on Sunday the 16th of April. Time for bed... it's 6am and I just got off the phone with MH. Home sick? U betcha!
