2007 is coming to an end and I try to make some conclusions of the year.

Life

The biggest thing happening would be that I moved month ago to my own apartment. Just a cozy not too big or small place where to stay and be.

Studies in university are going forward, not as well as they could be, but there is constant progress.

I have met and got to know many great persons.

Work

It has been long, hard and successful year.

We at Skype have released during this year four major Windows client versions, two Mac versions and two Linux ones. In addition to this there has been lot hard work on other fields.

In addition to that we had many great events, I took apart Skype's Developer conferences in Prague, Tokyo and Skype Night in London.

Politics

We did a successful parliament elections campaign in the beginning of the year for Ken-Marti Vaher, who got elected to parliament. A big bow in front of everyone in my team.

Our party Pro Patria and Res Publica Union got not so good results from the elections, we won 19 seats out of 101, which is about third less than we had before.

We are currently third largest party in parliament and second largest in coalition with Reform party and Social Democrats.

We have lot of work to do towards next elections in 2009.

On more personal side I have participated actively in international political youth organization work through DEMYC  and I also attended EDS Summer University in Ohrid, Macedonia.

I also ran myself on three elections inside our organization, out of which on two I got needed support. On the elections to elect head of one Tallinn district organization I got the honorary second place, but on the other had I was elected audit committee for Tallinn city organization with 360 votes, with most votes. I'm also part of leadership for Young Conservatives Tallinn city organization.

During this year I have traveled lot more than on previous years.

More remarkable countries and areas where I have been would be:

  • Japan
  • Kosovo
  • Serbia
  • Ukraine
  • Albania
  • Macedonia
  • Montenegro
I'm not going to mention here usual locations like Latvia, Finland, UK etc.

In total I have been out of country bit less than 2 months in time wise.

Conclusion

I would say that it has been a busy and successful year, now it is time to take some time off until new year.

Will be working on 2008 to have it even better year than 2007 has been this far.

There is no hill with too steep angle for climbing.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

On connecting with last weekends elections in Russia and happenings around it I came to a thought:

Russian who is abused in human rights terms is living inside Russia, not outside.
