Alternatively we could have written &#8220;We \u2665 to travel&#8221; or &#8220;We \u2665 travelling&#8221; but that is also much too clich\u00e9 &#8211; so we settled for &#8220;like&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p>And then we come to &#8220;travel&#8221;. By travelling we mean both vacation, business travel, adventure and just getting out of the country for any reason. Denmark is a very lovely country but 30+ years here is enough; we need to see something new. In 2009 we travelled 8 times between us &#8211; some for business but mostly recreationally. We started the year in the African continent, spent most of our days in the European continent, visited the North-American continent and ended the year in the Asian continent. Our plans for 2010 is to work hard and eventually save enough money to travel in Asia for 6 months to a year. <\/p>\n<p>So yes, we like to travel!<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>This blog is our diary<\/h3>\n<p>We started this blog because we would like to have a channel of communication when we travel and also to have a place to rave about our geeky projects. Right now we are both working full-time while also doing our own projects in our free-time and trying to keep up with interesting trends in software development. Our background include 3 ScrumMaster Certifications between us, one academic education as a Computer Scientist and one education as a Computer Engineer and we have been working for IBM, &#8220;Den Bl\u00e5 Avis&#8221; (Ebay), Lego, Aarhus University, one local hospital and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jaoo.dk\">JAOO IT-conference<\/a> to name a few. <\/p>\n<p>When we travel we tend to take a lot of photographs and we intend to share a lot of them with our blog readers. The photo in the blog header is also one from our travels &#8211; it is taken in Bangkok at Christmas time. The blue spots on the picture are Christmas decorations that hung in front of the view.
