2 day trip to Barcelona - 22-24 Oct 2009 in photos.

Fascinating city with architecture and relaxed live dynamics. I wish we would not catch the all-day rain on Thur 22nd, that only happened once in 4 months (as locals said), yet we got to see the beautiful rainbow over the city that happens as much rare.

Stayed at centrally located hostel in Barcelona "San Medin". The actual hostel is nicer than it's website - clean, accurate, next to metro, fast WiFi, paid 20 Eur per person per night in double bed room with balcony facing the street.

For 350 Kc / 13 Eur ticket cost (one way, 1 person) it worth flying more often. Go WizzAir!

Got a gift from Namibia, Africa - Biltong. It was passed on to me from the one friend who is currently living there via the Czech friend, who went there for vacation. And trust me - this dried meat tastes much more delicious than it looks. ;-)

Went to check out DesignBlok 2009. Interesting, colorful and exciting as last 2 years. Lots of fun. 2h allocated for attending this event was not enough... Looking forward to next year event!

Цитата дня:

"Вам, как владельцу и руководителю предприятия, довелось пережить не один кризис. Есть ли какие-то общие правила выхода из него?

Основных пунктов, мне кажется, три. Первое — работоспособность. Сейчас надо работать намного больше. Второе — выносливость и выдержка. Они необходимы, потому что какие-то вещи будут получаться хуже, какие-то вообще не будут получаться. Именно в такие минуты важны выдержка и спокойствие, т.е. не получается, не хочется, а ты должен идти дальше вперед. Третье — это команда, потому что жизнь — это командный вид спорта, и если тебя не окружают твои единомышленники, то ничего из этого не получится."
