Sunday beach reading. Much needed dose of perspective. Having just recently learned how hard it is to push agile change into larger organizations with a top down management style, it’s always good to know others faced the same issues. The light at the end of the tunnel might not be that incoming train after all. #changemanagement

Had an amazing time hosting the Garage48 Visual Hackathon in Minsk. Every time I come back from one of these events I’m exhausted and at the same time filled with new energy and positive emotions. Thank you all for making it such a memorable weekend. Special thanks to the organizers and to the Facebook guys for working hard and partying hard with us ;) what a ride it was!!!

❄️ 🚙 Estonian ice roads are amazing. When the weather gets really cold and the ice on the sea is thick enough, they open official ice roads to connect some of the islands in Estonia. Here you see the start of the road going to Vormsi island. All the roads are properly marked and have road signs along them. This one stretches 10km. It’s a bit freaky not seeing land and being surrounded by a sort of white desert while you’re driving. But the roads are good. How good? Well my car’s lane departure warning got activated when I decided to do swerve a bit. You can’t drive between 40-70km/h to avoid vibrations that might crack the ice. (at Rohuküla, Laanemaa, Estonia)
The end of an era. @bjornespressobar is closing its doors (until May) it will be demolished to give way to a new building in Maakri street.
I’m not sure what I wanted to achieve with this post… maybe just wanted that coffee place to be remembered by those who used to hang out there and go to Bjorn for some quick brainstorming meetings.
Still my favourite 1 euro coffee ☕️ place in Estonia. And they definitely improved the coffee culture in Tallinn. (at BJÖRN Espresso BAR)
Closing off another successful hackathon. This time a global climate action event. #climathon. In Tallinn we were the hosts for a global event happening simultaneously in 108 cities in 44 countries!! The biggest global hackathon to drive action on climate change. 24 hours of inspiration, perspiration and idealization. Next step, realization! (at Erinevate Tubade Klubi)
Appreciating things just as they are. Letting go. Life like a sunset 🌅 #nofilter #visithaapsalu “One of the most satisfying feelings I know — and also one of the most growth-promoting experiences for the other person — comes from my appreciating this individual in the same way that I appreciate a sunset. People are just as wonderful as sunsets if I can let them be. In fact, perhaps the reason we can truly appreciate a sunset is that we cannot control it. When I look at a sunset as I did the other evening, I don’t find myself saying, ‘Soften the orange a little on the right hand corner, and put a bit more purple along the base, and use a little more pink in the cloud color.’ I don’t do that. I don’t try to control a sunset. I watch it with awe as it unfolds. I like myself best when I can appreciate my staff member, my son, my daughter, my grandchildren, in this same way.”
