Going to India

By 1st of July 2013 I started in a new position as Offshore Delivery Manager
at Arla Foods amba. Me and my family was send to India by Arla Foods - a global Dairy company, and a co-operative owned by dairy farmers.
Prior to this new job, I've been working for Arla Foods the last two years, also in the Arla IT department. My new role will be as a liaison and bridge builder between our Indian based IT vendors and Arla IT.

Saying goodbye to what you know, your family and friends, is always tough. Although it is not 'goodbye' - but more 'see you again in two years'. But my wife Merete and my son and daughter (Anders, 16 years and Anne, 14 years ) had made a lifetime decision together with me, about trying the life as expats in India for two years - based out of Gurgaon, New Delhi.
Both my kids will go to an international school in New Delhi, and Merete will act as 'housewife' which - what we have heard - should be more than a fulltime job in India.

 Our empty house in Denmark is now for sale....

Stokbrovej 38, Elev, 8520 Lystrup

:-( has been our family house for the last 13 years, giving us lots of good times, close to school and with a wonderfull garden and neighbourhood.
