Greetings,
So yeah, that's pretty much it. Wrote up a resignation letter, and have some stuff packed for my move to Estonia, flight and train ticket booked (but have not paid the full sum till the house rental agreement is written up!).
Pretty excited, the role I've taken up is something completely out of my normal range of skills, I've been given the opportunity to work as a junior tradesman for a local Viru Valge brewing company. Pretty wild, pretty out there kind of job but this is something I've been thinking about my whole life.
For the past 3 weeks everyone I know has practical given me the riot act on why I shouldn't move. Well, I've weighed my options, and in the worst case scenario, I can always go back to IT if I need to.

My first concern is the weather (never really been a cold weather guy) and second would be the language. Food, I think I can resolve.
I may have to change the blog title soon to something more appropriate, and I might be posting in Estonian or Finnish soon.
Wish me luck!
Dav out.
