From Seoul to Gjervoldsøy
Sunday morning I woke up in Seoul; Monday evening I went to sleep in the family summer house on a tiny island outside Arendal in southern Norway. The contrast could hardly have been greater, in every possible way.

This may sound strange, but the explanation is simple. I'm speaking at a conference in Arendal today (Tuesday), and rather than stay in a hotel I chose to sleep at the summer house. A good choice, as the view out there is fantastic, and the silence all night total. The only "disturbance" is the light from the lighthouse sweeping across the window facing the sea every 30 seconds. Nice and soothing when you're awake at 0200 trying to convince the body to sleep.
