We are approaching the time of the year to writing applications for the Swedish research councils VR and FORMAS. We all have our tricks to get the opportunity to focus and bring those ideas on a piece of paper (literary). Today I skip commuting and I work from home. Started with a nice walk after leaving my son at the school bus.The sun was rising in a fog and I took the walk around the woods.
Back, I have the opportunity to use my nice and sunny room.
Countryside is both good and bad. Nature is close, but one travels a lot to activities, friends and work. In May, the permanent telephone will be removed for good (and I live in a very populated part of Sweden). Unless we dig down a cable, the only option is mobile internet. But first I have to finish those research applications.
