Passing by again...
Will post pics later when I am back in Paris and have more time.  Another 3.5 weeks to go before getting back to Paris. I have just learned that I will be back in my team there (still as a contractor), so everything is set job-wise in theory. Now we need to find a new appartment in Paris for the tow of us, and this may not be easy...

Back since yesterday!
We found a new appartment in central Paris (Bastille), that I will visit this week. We should move in in early January if all goes well. I have recently learned that I will not resume work with my team in Paris in January. Some service in the bank declared that there is a criminal risk ("risque pénal") to hire me as contractor here while I was hired on Payroll by the local entity of the bank in India. So, in short, no job in January, as I secured a new contract with my IT company in February only. And I have to find a new assignment too... Anyway, glad to be back, to celebrate Xmas with family and meet friends again, to take some vacation in the Alps, and eventually to start a new section of my life when we move in to our place with my gf (still in India for another 2 weeks btw). I do not forget about the photos! I will get to that work somewhere in January.

Man, suddenly I feel envy because you get to live in the center of Paris.

In short, the girl renting my appartment in Paris screwed me hard, and I was forced to let her stay one more year there. Meanwhile, I quit my company in May, because they could not find me an assignment at one client. Which means I was idle from mid-December to mid-May. Now I am at another French bank, working on the upcoming SEPA format, which basically is to electronic cash transfer what the Euro has been to currency: one format for every European country. Actual work is scarce, but I do not mind much, as it lets me more time and brain power to work on my personal project (more on that later).

Appartment on sale!
The girl living there left last month, so I was able to get the keys back, clean some stuff. After thinking a little while, I took the decision to sell this appartment, so as to buy another one, bigger and closer to the center. Another idea I had lately was to go work in Luxemburg. But I thought this would add complexity to the whole, so I abandonned the idea. My assignment stopped 2 weeks ago, and now I'm idle again (still under contract). So that's plenty of free time to manage the appartement things. Oh btw, forgot to say I'm single again. Well that's life...
