Day 320: November 16, 2015
Diary entry:
And so, the Asian journey is officially at an end, and it’s back to the daily grind in the office in the Netherlands.
Today begins a full day of workshops on the change that I started working on in Hong Kong on Friday. Full days to do in one week what we took the past nine months to work towards. Luckily we have a good base to reuse.
But jet lag is taking a serious toll on me this time. I could barely keep my eyes open once I made it back home.
This is going to be a long week…
