My experience with the Rotary Club
The Rotary International Club was founded in 1905 by Paul P Harris, a Chicago lawyer. There are two basic ideas of Rotary clubs: giving back to society and networking.
Capri: a vacation to the island of my soul
Italy is my favourite country (after Romania, of course). I go there at least three times a year, often to repeat destinations. It’s very easy to discover new streets with crossroads full of miniature sculptures and you wonder how it happened that you didn’t see them during your previous visit.
But today I’m going to talk about Capri, the island of my soul.
How we don’t get bored at home.
When I started writing this article, I was in quarantine for 58 days. Self-imposed quarantine because in the Netherlands only the rules of social distancing apply. Admittedly, the approach here is pretty relaxed.
Interview with a Parisian Lawyer
Helen has that Parisian style that we all want; she wears minimum make up and she is gorgeous. She is a very good friend and a very good lawyer. She hates gossip and we love to laugh together. We meet pretty often in different locations as we usually go to the same aviation events.
Helen is a successful woman. Being a partner at 32 is a very big achievement and she is always sets a good example.
Business strategy in times of crisis
The economy is affected in a totally unknown way. Governments have had to face some challenges they themselves are discovering only now; they get inspiration from other countries for what to do to keep the societal balance, including the physical and mental health of the population. Almost everywhere in the world, for those lucky enough to have the option, one can work from home; shops with non-essential products are closed as are gyms, hair salons, and restaurants. Concert, festivals, weddings with many guests will most likely be cancelled in 2020. There are also professional events that are postponed or canceled. In aviation, for example, March, April and May are the busiest months in terms of conferences, meetings or fairs.
