Unexpectedly, I recently obtained an internship at a Fantasy Soccer Start-up company here in Copenhagen. The company is called Ultimate Manager, which is run under the help of a start-up boosting company known as Rainmaking. While fantasy soccer is increasing in popularity in Europe, it has yet to become very popular in the US, but has the potential to be. Therefore, I was hired as a research intern to find out if it is economically feasible to expand their unique fantasy soccer platform to the US. It has been a great job so far; I love my coworkers, the office is beautiful, and the free gourmet lunch is incredible. Furthermore, my boss and one of our coworkers loves to play golf, so when they found out that I played back in America they wanted to take me out and see how good I was. Three days after I was hired my boss, Morten, another coworker, Gummi, and I took a day trip to Sweden to play some golf at a beautiful course. It was about an hour drive to the course, called Barseback Golf and Country Club, in Loddekopinge, Sweden. For those of you who watch golf, the 2003 Solheim Cup was actually held at this course.
Definitely a great way to learn from some successful business men.
It was an awesome Thursday; I couldn't have asked for much more. We have since gone out to play two more times, with more rounds to come.
