The Roo Story...continued. From nowhere to now-here.
Sydney – April 2009
Probably my favourite work trip ever. Over three weeks of intensive work and pleasant tourism. Work itself was quite challenging, and I was asked to lead the activity which is maybe not my natural instinct, but I grew into it, there were lots of issues to address, the customer was both difficult and interesting and then the last day demo to the executives of their team felt much easier, nearly like a victory lap. Anyway, yeah, I remember arriving in the morning at Darling Harbour, all nice and new, got lots of tips of places to see from Ben, caught up with Johanna (from the Floozy&Firkin days), great hotel, many places to see, this trip had nearly everything.
