Today was our last working day. We’ve worked several years in the office of Tui in San Fernando. Since Covid, we were mostly working from home. So today we started as usual working at our home office, Rob on the first floor (yes, work-wise he’s more important), Dirk in a corner of the living room. We had expected that today would be a different working day & it was.

We both worked together with many colleagues for years, so our email box was full of goodbye emails wishing us good luck for our sabbatical year. Dirk was invited to a very special goodbye team meeting, where colleagues showed a special goodbye movie, everybody said some nice words of thank you & Linda sang a song. Rob also had a goodbye meeting with his team. After lunch it was time to pack computer & screen, to bring everything back to the Tui office (which is just around the corner).

After Covid the office is different. Before it was packed with colleagues, now most are working from home & only a few colleagues are working in the office. But it was so great to have a real live chat with Wendy, Paula, Niel, Sita, Celina,…  Then it was time to hand in computer & work stuff, to say a final goodbye, going outside & close the door behind us. Yes, our sabbatical year starts now.
