Okay, I will start from where I had left you all guessing - The place that you saw in the picture is - "The House of Romance" which we came across in our Sintra Tour in Lisbon and I will let you google and post about it on my blogpost as comments on your findings. off-course, I am writing all this to share my next story with you.
Ever felt the Adrenalin rush of project go- lives in IT world can also be a journey of friendship, bunch of see you soon and good byes....
Leobond today shares with you one such page from her life's chapter. It was yet another Go-live like always but Leobond never thought this will become close to her heart. I guess we all cant survive without friends and this is the only relationship which doesn't need to be balanced on both sides.
You do count on people even if you don't give your best...
So, it was Aug 2019, the Leobond was yet another year old and our team from India was to travel on a significant day - gosh , yes right 15th Aug, our very own Independence day to set another milestone of our Professional career journey.
Lisbon, as you all know is the capital of Portugal and part of Europe, our place of Go-live delivery.
I was full of emotions on 15th as I had to leave my Mr Bond for nearly 6 months and stay away from home but at the same time was accompanied by my best buddies who are my 2nd family too.
The minute we landed, the scenic beauty of the place and the panoramic view of the whole city caught my eyes.
Our team from all over the world was travelling - Germany, Finland, India,Lisbon was all in one room together - Our War Room , thats what we call it in IT world.
I must say, that we all already bonded well virtually and were fond of sailing in the boat together .
Our all day conversations, meeting new people, numerous discussions here and there , made us progress every bit we wanted too...Needless to say, we did have a lot of frustrating conversations as well because a Go-live can never happen without them๐๐, I am sure you will agree to it.
But, we were all free spirits, our evenings always found better ways to energize us. Roaming on the streets, searching for restaurants, eating,drinking and sleeping as if tomorrow would never come was a daily routine for us.
Our weekends were even more crazy, all planning would start from Friday evening but no one could ever wake up and meet the Saturday meeting time. Sintra weekend tour was one such a happening one. If you have ever been to Lisbon, you would definitely once visit Sintra as a part of your city tour, will not miss this place.
For all of us, it was a day which we will never forget....Never thought clicking selfies was so much fun.
We Indians are not habituated to walking for such long hours, and I felt exhausted initially but with the weather around and our talks, our halts, our jokes, it was a huge stress buster for all of us.
After, this day, I think we had a memory of more than 300 selfies together. One think which you will notice is our smiles which is million dollar worth than anything on this earth. Ever thought, a Go-live can do this with people?๐๐...There is so much to write as there are more characters in the story who have yet not joined us, thats why its Part- and yes you guessed it right, like every story this post is all about meeting people and Hellos, we will also see the good byes but our story still continues....
So, enjoy your weekend and do post your experiences of any such journey which is yet another toast to Friendship!!
