I just came back from integration with my collegues in Dalarna. They're great people and I'm very glad that I get rid of anxiety issues finally. I played them even some tune on mandolin - "La Folias" by Gaspar Sanz. Unfortunately date of trip was suprising to me, I was expecting it to take place next week, and after going back from my holidays I needed to arrange everything to last minute, so I didn't manage to learn the piece well. They liked it regardless.
I also started to learn to play koboz I received this month from Hungarian luthier. Koboz is a fretless lute from Central Europe, popular in Romania and Hungary, and looks similarily to oud, but uses metal strings tuned usually Dd Aa Dd Gg (in octaves). I managed to play the simpliest polska from Skåne on koboz.
One of them suggested me to learn "La Folias" better and play together with him on violin. I like this idea very much.
Min svensk förbättras. Jag redan kan förstå tydliga enkla meningar i vardagen.
In the meantime, I have complex problem with some unit tests and framework which feels like hell. I'm happy that I made most of them working, unfortunately some of them still don't want to test what should be tested and my fixes don't work. Especially the task is so boring and uninspiring that focusing on this is a chore. Well, but work is work, they don't pay me for nothing. I hope I will solve this soon!
