Everyday life in Svea

I'm spending every other week in Svea, so Svea isn't just a work place but I need to think that there is my other home. For that it's worth to be working like we're doing you need to like your work, work place and have a good time with you workmates. Luckily we're having a really good team to work with and work days aren't lacking laugh and good stories.

It's actually pretty nice to be flying to Svea. I just love these mountains and like to be following where we're. I think landscape is just amazing from the air perspective. Here is Longyearbyen from southward.

This summer has been really cloudy and rainy. Here is Svea in sunshine - one of those rare days we were having a summerly weather. 
Summer is a hectic time in Svea, even though production is low when many of miners are having theis summer holiday. This is shipping seasons first coal boat, transporting 80 000 tonn good quality Svea-coal to the European market.

It's easier to see how huge the bulk boat is when you compare it for a tank boat beside it or to the 20 feet containers stabled on the left side of harbour.

After a work week it's nice to fly home. Soon a complete free week is starting!
