Mastering Life

Being absent is always a good sign!

Good times seem to continue, and time just seems to fly by...Last week was a short one for me. I joined the other designers at VANS at the Off-Site in downtown LA, NIIICE! Every once in a while the guys and girls leave the office behind to go on an inspirational trip, visiting museums, examining architecture, or watching films on arts and creativity. Good timing again, I happen to be around at a good time, to be able to join the team in such exciting events. We went to the Disney Concert Hall, the MOCA in LA and stayed in "The Standart". What a great place, best Skyline rooftop lounge/club and awesome rooms. It was good to finally spend some time with the whole team and get to know everyone a bit closer. I am becoming a part of it, and I don`t want to seperate all too quickly again...

I don`t want to complain, but the waves have been quite lame lately in Newport Beach. Step it up a bit Mr. Pacific, would you please?! Krystie and I went down to Encinitas yesterday to visit some friends and to get beached there. The sweel was good, around 3-4 foot, and finally some good push for me and my board. Wish it was like that all the time.

The week before was exciting and interesting too, like always. We got to meet Chad, the founder of Malakye at a nice dinner with the BambooSk8 crew. We were invited to come down to Encinitas and celebrate the graduation of Krysties BambooSk8 internship. Our network is growing fast, which makes us confident for the future. You never know who you will meet over here, every day is a great surprise. I hope it will continue like that. Finding friends, getting familiar with the people and culture, and growing our network seem to be the most important challenges at the moment. We will master it, I am very confident!

Peace,
