Everyone I've met has been lovely and the work I'm lined up to do all sounds really interesting. So, even though I could've been in Denmark this week if I'd stayed at my old job, I'm glad I left and I've really enjoyed my first week. The way I see it, there's plenty of time to pop over there for a few days (or an extended Scandinavian adventure, if money was no question) and at least I'd have someone with me. If I'd gone there this week, it would've been a solo business trip and whilst I would've met people over there I was working with, it could've been a bit lonely (not that I would ever let traveling alone put me off going somewhere in the future). Long story short, I feel like I've made the right decision and I'm really looking forward to getting properly into my new role! Feel a bit silly for being nervous to start this time last week, especially when everyone I work with is so friendly!
