JCI: World Congress Antalya pictures
I have taken a loooong long time to put these online, but it makes sense, since this is the most crowded period in online business. I really worked up to 16-18 hours a day in the last 2 weeks.
So, enjoy some of the pictures we took there, because it’s worth it. Three of us (me, [...]
Things I didn’t like at the JCI World Congress in Antalya
Before reading the bad things about the JCI World Congress in Antalya, read the good things. They are a lot more important and more influential in my final decision.
Now, the bad:
1. The weather
Someone said, jokingly, that he should ask for a refund, since the package received said something like “sunny weather”. Unfortunately, we only had [...]
Things I liked at the JCI World Congress, in Antalya
I have been quite late with this, but bear with me, we all have things to do, gossips to entertain with our friends, clients to meet at the end of the office hours, fast rides through the city to get somewhere to get 10 more minutes to talk. So, this is it:
Things I liked [...]
Bulgarian Winter Nightmare
I just reached home, after a horrific 12 hours trip through Bulgaria. Bad roads, closed roads, incomplete directional signs, inexistent directional signs most of the time, actually, and a heavy snow falling, you almost couldn’t see the road.
I try to be objective but I can’t: Bulgaria, build a f$%#in’ ROAD to cross the country. Romania [...]
Short recap
I am in Istanbul, on the road back to Romania. The night before I only slept 2 hours, yesterday I drove for 250km at night and in the rain, I got to Istanbul almost unable to speak (this is how tired I was).
Thankfully, I got to sleep for about 9 hours today (the first time since [...]
Last Day in Antalya
Yeap, the JCI World Congress is coming to an end.
I had a lot of fun these days (thus the lack of posts), not doing anything else but networking and enjoying the inside pool. Oh, I have been to a training about leadership. The trainer used a parallel between mixing a cocktail and different styles [...]
Resting in Antalya, partying with the Americas (Canada Party, American Party, Americas Party)
I have had some tiresome days lately, so I decided to take a day off from the JCI World Congress. Today’s afternoon was free for all delegates (no trainings and events) so I thought I should just enjoy what Antalya had to offer. Actually, I wanted to go to some trainings in the morning, but [...]
Football and swimming in Antalya
Well, I woke up today at 7 to meet with the Senator I was supposed to shadow, but I caught him at a bad time (he was suppose to train his debating team, so I didn’t shadow him after all.
That wasn’t so bad, though I would have wanted to follow him around, but I hope [...]
First full day of JCI World Congress
I am so tired My feet hurt, I can barely walk, I am sleep deprived, but I am good
I have succesfully gone through my first JCI World Congress full day here, in Antalya. I have attended, of course, the First Timers Briefing, where I had the good fortune of being picked [...]
Finally, to Antalya
Yeap, we finally reached Antalya and our destination, Kremlin Hotel.
I am impressed, though the reviewers here were not too happy with their stay. The complex is BIG, but I cannot yet tell what and where, since we got here at around 5 pm, at night. And yes, it was raining all day today.
We went [...]
