Well, the realities and challenges of juggling my dream job and partaking in this vibrant community with all the new daily requirements is starting to settle in.

This week, in addition to the daily readings, thinking of what I wanted to say on this blog post and working on my DMP, and being fully rested and ready for my flights, I traveled from Anchorage, Alaska to Hong Kong, Tokyo, Bangalore and now find myself composing this blog from the quite garden of a marvelous cafe I found here in Cologne, Germany.

This is my career choice and I wouldn’t have it any other way but it creates an interesting dynamic when you have several events that need to occur on a daily basis with a degree of consistency and yet my day keeps changing as I travel from one location to the next. I love a challenge and this is simply a matter of putting the pieces of this puzzle together.
