4 cross-border flights and a bottle of beer

It started with 5 days, 4 tickets, 3 objectives, 2 luggage, and ended with a bottle of beer.

Was one helluva week.
Friday to Sunday was Singapore. Met with a PnG Veteran who wants to wage a war against status-quo to end her corporate addiction. I admire her that even though her work gave her all the stability she would need in life, she decided to shake things up and start a business. It was a fair trade. Her Asia-wide utilized marketing and management skills with DEG's uncanny Entrepreneurial Craziness.

Sunday to Monday was Malaysia. Met with a 7-11 veteran who wanted to test his limits by going on his own. Similar to his counterpart in Singapore, he didn't want to settle for mediocrity and is always looking for action.

Monday was Jakarta. Long story, I just had to go back.
Tuesday was Manila. With a 4-hour flight and a warm passport, i bought a 3USD beer at the aiport cafe just a few mins before the flight to bring me home sweetly and soundly.

...and when I arrived at the Manila aiport 5:30 in the morning, it just so happens my Boss just landed from his U.S. trip. We had a wonderful early morning meeting at Jollibee. Filipino fastfood and coffee has never tasted so good.
