Looking ahead to August:
I’m preparing for my first Canada trip of the year. I will fly to Toronto, and will be under quarantine for two weeks. I am looking forward to celebrating my mother’s 94th birthday.
After that, I have plans for trips to Bern for the Swiss Fitness Center Association annual meeting, Amsterdam/Weert, Netherlands for clients meetings, and Oslo, Norway for a meeting with my new client Hitio.
Till next time!
