We had a nice motor trip to the Teutoburger forrest near Osnabruck, Germany. It's a great hilly quiet area - super for serious motor riding. So no wonder we saw hundreds of motor bikes :-)

Thanks to the always wonderful host Peter Paul of Ogilvy Amsterdam I was invited to an exclusive Sushi workshop at Yamazoto (Okura Amsterdam). One star chef Akira Oshima shared his secrets of how to make the perfect Sushi - and behold! - it really worked. They did not just looked great -they tasted awesome too :-)

Had a great evening presenting to students of Tilburg University about entrepreneurship - something I should know about by now, but realize every time again that it is probably something that you never really learn or understand but just have to do and enjoy. Nice talk by Niels Peteri of Quooker about the long, long way his company / family had to take to finally achieve the fabulous success the have now.

I will be presenting at the Road to Quote conference in Tilburg this evening. Question is of course: would you want to be in the top-500 of Quote anyway? Not sure yet what I will present...

The day I forgot my iphone - but wasn't fired

After a meeting today - I forgot my (3G) iPhone somewhere in the south of Holland. Unlike Gray Powell - who lost his (4G) one last week, I don't think it will have any other consequence then not to be able to be reached by phone for a couple of days... Thx to mobileme by the way I could track and trace the whereabouts of my phone by the minute: cute!
