To London

I’m once again travelling to London in business. Unfortunately not in “business class”, just in “business”.

My SAS EuroBonus gold card that I got in 2005 is due to expire in a month and I won’t get a new one — unless SAS understands value of bloggers, wink wink! — so I’m probably writing to you here in SAS lounge for the last time for some time. Working in US company had it perks.

I’ll be in London about 24 hours, and most of it is spent either in transit (to and fro Stansted), sleeping and working. So there won’t be too much to report, maybe a hotel review someday.

I’ve go a bit mixed feelings of this travel. It’s a lot of hassle for so little, but on the other hand I really like London and for some odd reason I still like to travel. This is probably because I’ve not yet overdone it, and I can focus solely on my interests (books and computer) while flying. There are no interruptions, as phones and emails do not work. Just pure thinking.

Another important part is also transient feeling, that you’re passing by and the current state is temporary. How bad might the service be, it really doesn’t matter — we are not going to meet again, me and the clerk or the fellow passanger.
