Today I've finally made up my mind, to change my "operation schedule". This is mainly because of two reasons:
1.) Seasons in South America are different to ours about 6 month. This means, that when whe have summer, there's winter in South America (of course, not all the country). That means, that winter is almost starting there at the moment and if I go there in June, it definitely will not be the best time. In contrast, every month I go there later, the weather will improve.
2.) According to the Austrian-law, one get's unemployment compensation, if he has been working at least 52 weeks within the last year. This means, that after one year abroad, I wouldn't have any title to get unemployment compensation (ignoring the fact, that I've been working the last 14 years ...). But if I apply for unemployment compensation for only one day, I can go abroad and my title will be active for 3 years. Therefore, I have to wait at least until the 1th of July.
So I decided to change my schedule and the new start of the journey will be approximately at the end of July (instead of end of May).
This are also good news for all fans of the "Attersee"-weekend, we celebrated the first time, last year. Because this means that there will be enough time to make an "Attersee"-revival in June or July! Stay tuned! :-)
