All those who read the blog on a regular basis know that the last two weeks have been especially hectic for me.

I spent last week finishing up the first round of training for one of my local clients (See picture at right), and flying off to Honduras for a meeting with an investor who is interested in me helping them open a call center in that country.

Suffice it to say, I did not get much sleep last week. This week has not been much better.




I spent Monday working on finalizing some new proposals and beginning work on a new project for La Republica Newspaper. And then spent yesterday on my monthly Sojourn to Esterillo Beach.

The trip to Esterillo is a painful 3.5 hours each way, but views like the one on the left make the trip much more pleasant.

Trying taking the 5.5 hour drive from San Jose, California to Los Angeles, down Highway 5 sometimes, and you will know exactly what I mean.


One of the things I dig about the drive to Esterillo, is stoping at little roadside stands like this fruit stand.

We have made it a tradition now to stop off at the fruit stand and pick up fresh Mangos and Avocados.

The place has the freshest fruit and veggies you will encounter anywhere in Costa Rica. Especially the Avocados, as they are grown local to the stand.

Will be having a bit of Guacamole in a bit here. Will let you know how yummy it is.


The class I do in Esterillo is a short one, about 30 minutes. Seems hardly worth it for the seven hour round trip drive. But it is a nice opportunity to get out of the city once a month, and it pays pretty damned good for 30 minutes of work.

And honestly. Do you really think I am going to complain about an all expenses paid trip to the beach, where I get to spend thirty minutes in short, sandals and shades giving a short talk to some of the richest people in North America? I think NOT!


The next few weeks will likely be very, very hectic. I have several projects coming to head at the same time, so it will be an interesting time and project management challenge to keep them all sorted out. Thank God for the work!
