In Cebu

We've arrived to our destination! 

It was a good exercise to travel all together, and the team forming continues.
It's hard to believe it's only been 3 days since first touching down in the Philippines.

View from the hotel room

The hotel where we'll be staying for the month is very nice.  I am sharing a suite with Tatiana and we have a great common area with a kitchenette. 

We drove through some sketchy areas on the way from the airport and I would be curious how comfortable and familiar I will become with my new city in the course of the month and as we acclimatize.

We went to the Metro mall to look around, do some shopping for necessities like bottled water, toiletries and of course, mangoes... and for dinner (at Gerry's Grill).  The food is delicious but we're getting entirely too much of it - learning...  It will be interesting to see the sprawling huge! mall - during daylight.

The fact that we are meeting with the clients on Mon AM quickly dawned on us and there was much rush to send clothes to be pressed with the express laundry service, talk of butterflies and anxiety, and affirmative smiles... yes, we are ready, and looking forward to it.  Especially hoping to quickly connect with the clients and launch in building an effective relationship from the get go, which will tremendously jump start our project's value add.
