DENVIEW REUNION - JULY 22ND

Yesterday was definitely a successful day in terms of tracking old colleagues and friends down. I managed to finally meet up wtih Evgeny Vasiliev, my old boss from Denview. We had a good chat about life, work and interesting new projects. Funny, I just did a consulting project in the bread and bakery industry (to be a new post SOON, I promise), and he's getting into the industry now.

Turns out there was a reunion of old Denview employees planned for that night - so I hooked up with a handful of folks I would never have been able to track down on my own. It was fantastic! Everyone is in a new company, except Liuba. Denview has been transformed. It was great to see everyone and get the scoop. So many interesting opportunities.

I took photos and posted them on my web site. If interested, you can check them out:

I also saw Misha, another old boss from my Hershey days. After living 6 years in America, he's returned to Russia to try to find more interesting work here. Revisited the old Starlite Diner - same old place, but now with wifi access and a nice terrace. If you're nostalgic for American coffee and diner food - best place to go. They don't serve American beer - it's all RUSSIAN now and quite good. Do svidanya Budweiser and Miller - your days are over. Sadly, few American companies took the leap into real investment here and have been easily replaced. Another story for another day - I'm getting out of this smokefilled bar and taking my camera to the streets!
