Autumn and Winter in Scotland

Time has passed so quickly since I left my job mid-December that I have not even realised I have not posted anything for a few months. Here follows a brief summary and a few pictures to illustrate some enjoyable moments and lovely scenes from Edinburgh, the Pentlands and Pitochry from past autumn and this winter.
As you can guess I was not looking actively for a job but enjoying being out and socialising.  Moreover December and January were mainly dedicated to the search for a flat to move in with my love Ju. The search and viewings were quite a bit of energy consuming but so much worth it as we both love our new home. The flat is great; lovely decorated and big enough for the both of us to work on our own projects with enough space. It is ideally located; we're just next to the canal and cycle path with a park nextdoor. And only 20 minutes walking from the city centre - less than 10 minutes by bike.
In February and March I was lucky enough to be involved in 2 great singing projects: Big Big Sing (more info here : bigbigsing.org) and a flashmob singing with a few other choir members to welcome Rufus Wainwright for his performance in the Usher Hall). I will talk about my experience singing in a choir (http://www.choir.lovemusic.org.uk/Edinburgh Love Community Choir) in a next post.
