Goodbye to the international team

Tonight we went our for snacks & drinks with most of the "Seneca International" team. Some nice words and a very unique farewell gift: cooking outfit in orange (cause me and my big plans...!)....
I will miss the nice and diverse team of colleagues; a true small United Nations.....

Starting retirement...

Retiring from Seneca at the end of this month (January 2020). The five years at Seneca were an excellent ending of 40 years of full-time work (two years at the Ministry of Industry in The Hague, one year at Istha Industrial Design in Utrecht, five years at Fokker Aircraft in Amsterdam, seven years with MSF/Doctors without Borders in Maputo, Toronto and again Amsterdam, nineteen years with Niagara College, one year in Bogota with Colleges & Institutes Canada and five years with Seneca College in Toronto). A privileged path and along the way so many exceptional colleagues to work with. Yesterday my Seneca International colleagues organized a nice retirement event.


Nice farewell words of Nevzat, the VP to whom I have been reporting to the past two years, followed by a few words of thanks of yours truly....
Retirement will be something to get used to, I am sure. I hope to stay active through a few volunteer activities and will continue to make posts of that every now and then.
