August 22, 2005 - Launch Day for Vionet7

It is Monday and last week I thought of launching a new blog. This is the birthday of vionet7, which comes seventh in a row of vionet blogs where I publish my photo diaries. In fact, I started the blog business in December 2004 with the intention to keep a diary online about my life in the USA as a Fulbright exchange teacher. As a result of this I maintained six blogs while I was in the USA. Now I am back in my home country Bulgaria and my friends and acquaintances in Bulgaria, the USA and other countries want to know how I am readjusting to life here and what the reverse cultural shock looks like. This is the main reason for launching a new blog from the vionet family today. I chose this day as it is easy to remember - tomorrow is my dad's birthday. It is 22 C (72 F) in Sofia at 9 a.m. and the day is gloomy.
