It's easy to say that it's a small world when you're an AIESECer.

But how often do you find a relative in an international conference?!

I met Elias, LCP of Linköping, Sweden, at ScaLDS and again at Euroco... turns out that he's part icelandic and after having looked his dad up in the database of Icelanders, I find out that we're 9th cousins! Maybe we're not THAT related but still!

(From the right: me, Elias, Espen and Robert)

You can almost tell that we're cousins!

Your MCPe's leadership style

I thought it's only fair that you get to know what my leadership style is. So there you go!



Don't know how accurate this is... probably not very much so... but at least it's amusing!

AIESEC in Iceland's process for forwarding emails

We did the impossible...

...we tidied up the office in University of Iceland!

This is what it looked like before...


And this is how lovely it looked when we were almost done...

We rock! And by we I mean myself (Freyja), Laurent Teitur and Bryan.

We found some pretty funny stuff while we were cleaning. My favourite was a transition report from the year 2000 where the MCP current concluded with the remark that "he thought it was very important the Icelandic MC girls didn't dress all sexy during IC. And by that he meant tight and bright coloured shirts. He couldn't really explain it in writing, but at IC he saw how important this was and that they would discuss this at the transition meeting."

We also found a few hundred small papers in different colours that all had a different sentence written on them. One was "I enjoy problem solving" and another was "I learn best by learning from myself"... I cannot imagine what this was used for!

Then ofcourse I haven't mentioned the huge box of condoms and instructions on safe sex... along with a poster with drawings of different positions.

I never knew that tidying up could be so much fun... but how could I not, after all, we are supposed to enjoy all participation in AIESEC!
