Yesterday me and some of my team mates attended a brunch hosted by the organisation A Small World. It’s a world wide forum founded by the Swede Eric Wachtmeister as a private online community for like-minded individuals. A Small World offers its members trusted and selected information. It can be everything from travel suggestions, listings of events around the world, city-based resources to tips of employments. Members range from entrepreneurial and business opinion makers to leaders in media, entertainment, fashion, the arts and sports.
We met some real estate agents (and got invited to a San’t Patrics Day celebration), some web-guys, a couple of filmmakers, a man who’s thinking of starting up the Kaospilot program in Mumbai and a bunch of other interesting people. Actually we got invited to a lot of things, filmsettings, parties, dinners etc.
And (even though this gathering of people was more than enough to make my day) the brunch was held at the Salt Water Grill, a place just on the sea side. It looked like a picture of a luxury resort cut out from some glorious travel magazine.
There were five chefs making food of our choice just in front of us, grills with everything from beef and chicken to fish and prawns, dishes with various courses of food, cheeses, biscuits and a table dedicated especially for the desserts. And there were alcohol of all sorts, from the sweetest beers, finest vines and most smoky whiskeys to daiquiris, mojitos and champagne. It just felt like playing in a locked area for some hours.
