Middle East 2023

It's been years since our company had a get-together, and we've grown by a few people since.

Now that travel is on the cards again, we're meeting up in Kemer, Türkiye. We have guidelines for travel that ensure there's always someone from our operations team available in case something happens. This means that certain people can't travel on the same day or in the same airplane.

I'm on the operations team, so I had to fly on different dates than my colleagues. I took this as an opportunity and prepended a few days in Israel on my trip.

    A 1.5 hour delay on a 2 hour transfer to start the trip!
