Finally Fresh Start is online! Nearly 2 years after the initial (7 weeks) project we’ve been working hard to present this to the Emergence poster sessionin Pittsburgh and Dave went and also live-blogged the event. Loads of interesting thoughts.
Something to work on
I have been traveling quite a lot in my life and i think that i will work on illustrating my travels in different ways. One must note that I am only including my moves and not my touristic traveling.

Brunch 2.0
Another 8 hour-long sunday brunch sun-dappling, eating lovely home made food and drinking wine, what else is life for? The weather was a bit moody this time around so we had to move inside for the end of it but we had a lovely time. The nice thing about professionals in my field and the… Continue reading Brunch 2.0
