saigon II | same same but different
such a cool term, that’s why I used it here. Ha. Nothing happend for about 2 weeks besides of making contacts and collecting phone numbers. All of a sudden it started. 4 jobs in 2 days. In the end I decided for the following situation:
From monday to friday I gonna work for Rebranded as a packing designer. Yes I didn’t want to do design anymore, if I ever was a designer anyways. I chated to the CD Jacob to have an overview what’s going on in Saigon. And 3 days later I signed the contract. I really like the stuff those guys are doing and I have the feeling I can catch up some more tricks and improve my skills in graphic design and illustration. That’s why I decided finally for the job.
I had to shootings as well already. Its a nice feeling to be THE photographer, but I will see if I get happy with those “getty-images-style-shots”. I gonna buy some lightning equipement for myself to try around and concentrate more on private shootings, like the one in Hue I wrote in my last entry.
I live in a house with 3 girls now. hihi. Its a huge giant big house and is actually to big for my understanding for living. I thought about moving again, but you get used to things and to lazy. I am not going to post pictures of this house. Its just too big.
So, everything is good here and I feel about learning more again. And that’s what I need for sure. Its so strange to seddle down again, even its for a uncertain time. You stay somewhere and sleep more than 2 weeks in the same bed. weird. Sometimes I have to do something crazy and unusual to compensate the recurrence in Saigon. Doesn’t work so far. But I am working on it. It gives me actually an impression how its going to be back in germany … when I am coming back anyway. hihi.
