It’s been a while since my last post.
During that while, I’ve returned reluctantly to New Zealand from an incredible 12 months in Switzerland. I was working for an outstanding company (Best Of Swiss Web 2009) on some outstanding projects.
I made some great friends, had some great times, learned to snowboard, lost nearly 15 kilograms, braved rubber bullets and tear gas on the 1st of May, and thoroughly enjoyed myself.
I’m now back in Auckland, and am three weeks into my new job as Web Development Manager at Vodafone. I’m part of a great team and am really hanging out to do great things on/with/through the web 🙂
Another thing I’m looking forward too is the next Auckland Web Meetup on the 2nd of July. It’ll be great to catch up with friends, eat pizza, drink an Epic, learn more and be inspired.
I’ve got a new mobile number (+64 21 623 923) and am making the most of my Nokia E90 (I know, it’s not an iPhone). I use Twibble as my Twitter client, and am continuously updating my location with Google Latitude. You can see my current location on the sidebar, along with a few feeds of Dan-generated content and links.
Why a reluctant return? Are you going to make it to Queenstown for some boarding? I’m there week starting June 26…
Maybe back for Meetup 🙂
Reluctant, because Switzerland is so so so awesome.
I’m down in Christchurch for a week, at the moment. Brought my board down and am hoping to get across to Mt Hutt.
Perhaps see you next Meetup!
Suggest anchovies pizza with super hot chili sauce. Follow up with dark beer and walahhh! Finally, gather around a table with some friends to play poker while watching Bay Watch reruns…and forget corporate web dev for the night!
