QT Hotel, Sydney, Australia

3 years since my last time in Sydney. Amazingly enough, last time I was flying solo desperately trying to secure business from the Australian government, and this time the Australian government was paying for my entire trip as a member of their data committee… I felt such a sense of pride arriving into the country, […]

YES, I absolutely loved Zurich, but 95 degrees in a convertible while driving through urban congestion doesn’t exactly exude elation. Switzerland’s infrastructure has to be some of the best in the world, and the […]
