Europe Work Trip

 Mar 24,

Last Friday I left home to head to Europe for a 1 week work trip to Germany and Poland. The plane tickets were too expensive to travel on the weekend, so I had to travel on Friday to make it reasonable. Others did the same. While missing out on the weekend with our families was a sacrifice, it ended up being a great thing for team bonding. We were able to hang out during the weekend and actually get to know each other a bit better before starting an intense week of back to back traveling, meetings, and late evenings. It was an exhausting week but also very productive. And it was great meeting multiple people in person for the first time ever. It was very hard work, but it was also a great time. And I learned lots.
