Amsterdam

March 25 20080 comments

Noble Studios took us on a trip to Amsterdam for a 2 day workshop, team building, and they 5 days of whatever the hell we wanted. It was not wasted, although, we definitely were. The workshop was unexpectedly productive and the entire trip has brought the whole office closer together. We were mentally stripped down built up again. Personally I feel refreshed and focused. More focused than I have been in a long time.

We knew it was going to be a good trip from the minute we got the airport at 6am. Everyone was all smiles and completely embracing, especially towards Nicole. This is the first time they have met here and honestly, they probably, up until that moment, didn’t think she existed!

The flight was easy. We started drinking in Reno and didn’t stop until Amsterdam. Definitely made the trip smoother. Once we were finally there, and thanks to our pilot we got there an hour earlier, we unloaded our gear and headed straight for a coffee shop. From here the trip is a blur of laughter, fun, productivity, art, drinks, good food, and flight butt. Oh and the best pot I have ever smoked. I could probably go on and on on details that are unimportant except to those of us that were there, but I won’t. Basically, the trip was amazing. Everyone I work with is amazing. And it was absolutely incredible to have shared this experience with Nicole and crew. I can’t wait to go back to Europe.
