Lots of progress in work department lately. Our team at OSSO is growing and we are working on a new website. This time one that should actually be good. We are also preparing to a special open source sub-site where we will list our current open source projects. And as an addition we have a [...]

End of january / beginning of februari I was able to enjoy 4 days in Nauders, Austria.

Little more then a month ago I took a short holiday and traveled together with Bas to Edinburgh for a weekend. To keep it short: we had a great time and the Scottish are great. Cheers!

I´m in Brussel now, writing this entry on my eee-pc in our hotel room. Went sightseeing today, lots of walking. Brussel is a really nice town, lots of stuff happening on the streets (without being very crowded), which makes it a very lively town. Nice atmosphere. Must say I am a bit disappointed by the [...]

Nice start of my travel to canada. I wanted to check in online, but somehow the webshite couldn’t find my flight/booking. Gives you the “oh oh” feeling.

Tomorrow and monday will be focused on hanging tourist style. Visit some old buildings and noteworthy things here. Edit: Ofcourse the evening ended [...]

Some pictures Canadian fast food, next to the burger you find poutin. Fries with cheese and saus. Not really nice, greasy. I [...]

Yesterday we went out for dinner to the “House of Jazz” here in Montreal. Quite expensive but really enjoyable. There was a live band. The food was really great as well. I had an 16oz steak. Godlike. I don’t know if they are more rude to tourists then to Canadians but it seems normal here [...]

Everything is a bit different here. Besides everything is in French but the people can speak English (you don’t see that in France ). The subway has wheels with tires on them. When we had to buy a metro ticket you bought it at a booth and then give it to another employee immediatly (standing [...]
