  • Switzerland dropped out

    Yesterday, or should I say this morning for me, was the match Switzerland against Ukraine at the football world championship. I was crazy enough to stay up to watch it. Here in Thailand it’s on life at two in the morning. Would I have known the outcome and the never-ending…

  • Visiting old friends

    Yesterday I had a long 16 hour day. I drove up to the mountains and back close to 500 kilometers. I met with my staff to prepare for a team and some project we are working on. Then we went up to the village where they originally came from. It…

  • Hugged by Jesus

    Yesterday as I drove up to the mountains I was listening to some worship music. I was contemplating on work and life (Something I seem to do excessively) A sequence (or call it a vision) of Jesus entered my mind. He came close and hugged me. It felt incredibly real…

  • My Lowden back in use

    I had quite a hard time glueing because of the wrong tools. But at the end I did it. I left the clamps on over night and half a day. Then I removed them and waited another day. I was not shure how long I should let it dry.After cleaning…

  • GPS

    I haven’t made a wish list for donkeys years. Actually since I lost faith in Santaclaus. But of course I never really grew up and I still have a mental list of things I really want. Thinking of wish lists I realise that we only make them because we don’t…

  • Guitar repair

    I must be insane. Here I have a vintage guitar worth over 3000.- SFr. and I repair it myself. I spent the whole morning Yesterday preparing for the event. I searched the web on how to do it, what glue to use and I pray that this will turn out…
