A very quick hello from the Arctic

Goodbye Arctic!

Well, got the call thios morning to say my contract will come to an end next week. Not unexpected as the company have not being able to raise cash and at the same time we production is less than half of what was anticipated. So, that is my time in the arctic at an end.

 

Although I have loved it and it has allowed me to experience things I had always dreamed of and the thought of no income again is scary, I will be very glad to head home. It has been an odd time. As although I have been away from home for longer swings, I have been homesick and missed my wife far more than previously. I think it is because I am in an environment where she could be with me, rather than in a tent in the middle of Africa. Here, I am in a nice house in the center of a modern town. That, and having been unemployed so much recently, we have spent so much time together so being apart has felt hard for us both.

 

So, will spend the week doing a few things I wanted to experience and finishing off work and look forward to jumping on a plane next Wednesday.
