On Tuesday I met up with Johan, an old colleague from two jobs ago, at Soho House for lunch and as it turned in to some late afternoon wine drinking. Our main reason for meeting was business, but not having seen each other for almost two years we rather quickly went on to talking about what have happened in our lives since the last time we met. Hence the wine…
Having heard about Soho House before I have to admit that I was tad bit disappointed, but still it was a very cool house. I can imagine that for people like Johan who spend a lot of time working in London, New York and LA (where the next house is going to open) it’s a great place to work, relax and to entertain. It is of course always nice to have a place to go to where everybody knows your name.
Sitting there we both laughed and realised that we have come a far way from that draughty corner office with an extra heater where we met for the first time eight years ago working on a millennium site. The first project of many to come. Then the last time we met was on an airplane to Paris and now in London, so I think we have done rather well. We are not the wiz kids anymore though, but we love to believe so…
