Last night I returned home from Dubrovnik, Croatia from what was one of my favorite vacations of my life. I have never seen anything like the city before. An entire town surrounded on all sides by massive stone walls. It really feels like you are living in a medieval city that has been untouched for … Continue reading Dubrovnik in 48 Hours

London Calling (my 48 hours)
Traveling to London always interested me. Besides the obvious fact that they speak English, it always seemed a place I could be comfortable in. Everyone has high praises for it and it wouldn't really take me out of my comfort zone. I've long been a fan of Sherlock Holmes and James Bond so I always … Continue reading London Calling (my 48 hours)
Paris in 48 hours
Day 1 The train from Amsterdam to Paris was an easy 3 hour ride through the countryside of southern Netherlands and Belgium.

Amsterdam to me
“Organized Chaos, Canals, bridges, bikes. This is Amsterdam” Organized chaos was how a local described it. My first impression of Amsterdam was efficient. Cars, buses, trains and bikes alike, circled in symphony down the narrow roads and alleyways. Boats below slowly meandered through the canals bringing tourists a view of the city. Bakeries and coffee … Continue reading Amsterdam to me

Many, if not most, people believe they get more work done when they work from home. They cite less distractions as the main reason. I certainly agree with this context as my recent switch to working remotely has certainly increased my productivity. More and more employers are allowing their employees to work remotely a few … Continue reading So you’d like to work remotely

Its all about the perspective and context
Perspective and context and two things that are not taken into account in business as much as I think is necessary. They are two key things that, when left out, drastically alter the understanding of something. Whether it be a proposal for a client, hiring a new employee or rolling out a new process, perspective … Continue reading Its all about the perspective and context
