HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Little Mermaid Copenhagen

In 15 minutes New Year comes in Vietnam. Tried to call home but Mum is sleeping, brother is out for a football match (no idea). This new year is not the new year for Vietnam people then. If I were home things would be different. Last several years I always celebrated new year with my brothers with champaign and watching the fireworks shows in TV. This year I'm going to celebrate new year myself in Copenhagen under the very big fireworks.

To summarize the last year I would say, very obviously it is the year of travelling for me. Travel to explore Europe, travel to explore IKEA's world and travel to explore myself.

Well what I remember most is ... water! Water is everywhere in every city I've been. A lot. Especially in Amsterdam. And according to some Vietnamese belief I was born in a water life. So whereever, whenever there is water there is goodluck for me. And yes I do have a very good year this year with these beautiful water related around.

I've been in 8 countries up to this time, the last day of year 2011. I could not remember how many cities. After all one of my biggest dream come true. VISIT EUROPE. and I have to say it's turned out even bigger. As it's not been only visit but it is a true journey of my life.

Another big dream of mine comes true. See IKEA in total. Could not believe after all in general I am confident to say I know you IKEA. It is not purely related to my career path. It is much bigger than that for me. Supply Chain Management is what I aim to. So imagine now I'm just here within the big chain of IKEA. GREAT. It also answers the question why I always can keep that high motivated attitude. :)

The third one I dont know how to say. Is it a dream comes true? Several parts of myself have been explore this year. Beautifully. I would like to say thank you to all people I met during the year through whom I see who I am more clearly with a broader view. Thank you to family and all people who support me during those ups and downs.

For the next year of 2012. Wish that I still could keep this speed. Stay healthy, strong, high motivated to achieve new targets, to explore more new things and ... to love :).

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
