After some time with not a lot happening, this week has been great. Just look at my after-work activities:
Monday: Closing reception of the Kids Euro Festival for everyone who worked with it (that is, including me and fellow intern Daniella), at the residence of the Ambassador of France (which, surprise surprise, looks like a castle).
Tuesday: Welcoming and ticking off guests at the fancy annual dinner for the American (- Obama, unfortunately) Nobel laureates, before they go off to Sweden to accept their prize. Everything took place at the residence of the Ambassador of Sweden, and we eventually got to eat the same food as them.
Wednesday: Opening of a Globalized Museum Conference (which my supervisor helped organized) at the Smithsonian castle, including speeches, a jazz band, lovely food and mingling with museum directors from various European countries.
Thursday: Taking part in a Lucia procession at the Swedish-American Chamber of Commerce's annual Swedish christmas dinner, for which we also got to eat of their buffet. I might have overdosed on salmon and meatballs.
Friday: Taking the elevator up to the fifth floor of House of Sweden and the Embassy of Iceland for a christmas After Work. I might have overdosed on glögg and fingerfood.
Soon: Off to the House of Sweden to work a shift at the annual Swedish christmas bazaar. Will be wearing a Swedish folk costume, again.
