I’m mostly working 10-12 hours days here, but I try to have some time off in the weekend. Last Thursday, after the mingling event I was lucky enough to be invited to dinner with Maria and some of her friends. It was a really great night with pre-dinner drinks, lots of really nice people, interesting and fun conversations, and great food. On Friday night and most of Saturday I worked on Authenpic, the project I’m doing with my sister Mari, before I joined Maria and another group of her friends for some beers at Dolores park. Sunday I walked around the neighborhood, and worked some more with both YAY and Authenpic. It’s kind of nice when your work is your hobby, and your hobby is your work.

Outside the the office at Market Street, Financial District.

A (tired) CalTrain selfie. Going to the Palo Alto office. And no, it’s not raining. Been sunny every day since I came.

The food in California is fantastic. This is quinoa salad, chicken and hummus.

Friday night with Authenpic and takeaway food. Today I got it 5 minutes after ordering! I’ve been using two services that Maria recommended: Sprig and SpoonRocket. Both deliver the food really fast, the food is good – and healthy.

At Dolores Park. Reminds me a lot of Sofienberg park in Oslo.

Oh yes! San Francisco has a street called Linda! I’ll have to move there!

Eating some great, greasy Mexican food after the park.

 

This is my street. It’s so beautiful! 

I’m liking San Francisco more and more, even if I’ve only seen parts of the city yet. I live at Alamo Square, and I’ve walked to Golden Gate Park, across Castro to Mission, and I work at the Financial district. The rest of the city is still unexplored, but I plan to change that in the upcoming weekends.
