Amsterdam

It’s Friday and I’m absolutely beat. Long hours at work and a young kid does not make life very relaxing. While I’m still overall loving being a Dad, there’s many times where I wish I could just escape life for just a week.

One of my good friends is in Bali right now for his honeymoon and I have been thinking about how nice it would be to spend a week with just Sophia on an island in Asia. The thought of being on an island with no agenda and no responsibilities is a dream right now. Of course, that’s not a reality right now. Those days will come again in the future.

For now, I’m headed to Amsterdam for work on Sunday night. While not a trip for “leisure”, I am still excited. Flying by myself without having to take care of Colin is a bit of a treat in itself. The thought of just being able to sleep in a hotel room with no monitor and alarm clock sounds amazing right now. Of course, the jet lag is probably going to play into that quite a bit, but hey I’ll take it at this point.

I am also excited to see the rest of the team. Most of which I haven’t seen in over 3 years. There’s even some team members I’ve never met in person before. It’s going to be nice being out there with everyone again.
