In 2008, I arrived in Sao Paulo a month before my starting date at McKinsey to learn Portuguese. My intensive course was great not only because I enjoyed learning the language but because I quickly made friends with my professors.
On the morning of the 13th of October 2008, I was late. I entered the room in the big office building to realize we were 13 starting on that day: me and 12 men. Lucky me to have had the chance to meet them and spend that first week together with them! We were an international bunch either freshly returned after MBAs or freshly starting as analysts. It was a good week; some fond memories and beautiful friendships go back to those days.
My 13th of October 2010 makes me smile. Today I felt as if someone has entered my mind, took the fantasy of my perfect working environment, and made it real in a house in downtown Turda, 30 km from Cluj.
So today, I dare asking you: if dreams can come true, why not dream?
