At home

It's Saturday afternoon and I'm back in Rotterdam.

My roommate Zeno
During my week in Jordan the second CEEDer, Zeno Popovici, arrived. We should have met before, but due to the fact that he unfortunately lost his flight connection and got slightly delayed, it wasn't possible. When we met, Zeno was already settled in our room, everything went smoothly and we are getting on very well.
Zeno's job role is to completely reorganize the IT infrastructure at the AI office, which is in a neglected state for couple of years. I'll try to get involved in this as much as possible because of unique practical experience I can hardly get somewhere else.


Living in Rotterdam
Services and entertainment are a little bit more expensive here, as expected. On the other hand it's easily accessible and available in a wide variety.
I also found out, that prices in supermarket (almost just behind corner) are surprisingly reasonable. Cool, at least I won't starve:)

Dangerous neighbourhood
All AI residential places as well as AI office and the main Rotterdam railway station are situated very close to each other, which is very convenient. However, as I was informed, it is rather dodgy neighbourhood... Luckily I cannot confirm it based on my own experience:)
Except for a fact, that even before going to the office on Monday, I got to know from Ondro, that it was broken into! Stolen laptop (of 8 people)... is not a good start in transition period:(

Beware, these ducks and goose can be dangerous as well!
