  • Day 1 in Bujumbura

    The day started over a nice breakfast on the beach. My favorite food items was sliced up avocado with stringy onions and carrots in lemon juice.

  • Reflections on Concur’s Perfect Trip DevCon

    It was tripchi’s pleasure to have participated, and pitched, in the inaugural Concur PerfectTrip DevCom 2013.

  • Now, for something completely different

    Well I usually write a lot about airports and travel. But I thought I’d shake things up today and write about marketing.
