So long and thanks for all the meatballs

I’ve taken a leave of absence from IKEA Barkarby during my two years in Japan. Yesterday was the last day and I was greeted with goodbye hugs and gifts. I’ve been working here for a little over two years and grown to like and understand the company more and more. The wonderful people who work here is one of a kind. The airplane lifts off from Stockholm in less than two weeks and quitting IKEA reminds me of how fast time flies. This is the next step in my new life and it makes it feel more real.

Thank you, dear colleagues, and sayonara!

A magnificent dalahorse from my IKEA co-workers – It will follow me to Japan!
