Affiliate trip to Valencia

// September 22nd, 2009 // 1 Comment » // travel

After Iceland (2007) and Malta (2008) I was again invited to join Daisycon on their annual affiliate trip. This time we went to Valencia where we spend 3 beautiful days with excellent food, lot’s of vino and great people.

Thanks to the staff and management of Daisycon for making this happen. I’ll do my best to be there again next year!

I got back from New York this morning… the city is amazing! I’m trying to stay awake now and not give in to the jetlag. Some of the pictures are online in my Flickr account.

NYC has been on my list of places I want to visit for a long time, so I’m really happy that I can finally go there. I didn’t organize anything besides a plane ticket so all tips are welcome. I’m especially looking for someone who can give us some tips about the nightlife and places to stay.

For three days I went skiing with my colleagues from Tribal in the Netherlands and Belgium… well lets say I’m no talent and need to take some more classes next year. But I had a lot of fun and the scenery was beautiful. Pictures are on my flickr account.
