Farewell drinks

Yesterday I had my farewell drinks with my work colleagues, typical event you or your department organizes when your time working within the company has come to an end. This time we had a "3x1", as I was joined by Lauren and Evi, also leaving, in this event. It was a very nice evening, at certain point I looked around and saw no colleagues but friends, and being able to call friend to so many people in the pub made me feel so happy. It gave a feeling of fulfillment, I may be leaving this organization, but I can feel my two years and half here have had an impact, I have made a contribution, and I leave behind a great group of people who I know I will meet again, somewhere around the world.

So thanks to all of you guys, to Simone, Reuben, Mazzy, Nicole, Lauren, Evi, Bronwen, Wiebe, Karine, Heidi, Matt, Iris, Arthur, Cibele... and so many others that made my time here worth it.

First time for everything

Finally, my too long postponed trip to Asia is about to start, in one week I will be taking my flight to travel to Singapore, and from there a "small" jump to New Zealand. I know, I know, not too much but being this the first time I'm travelling east I think is a good beginning ;-)

3 weeks of holidays, after a very busy year. Time to think, try to find some answers, make some decisions, decide which elements are going to influence those decisions, and most of all time to have some fun and think just about me :-D
