That evening, I was able to get to finally meet (in person) most of the 15 team members that made up our CSC Brazil 12 team plus our CSC coordinators, Rodrigo and Vanessa, from CDS. We went for dinner and had some great Brazilian food and drinks to socialize and get to know each other a little more. Picture of part of our team below.
Today we had a exciting full day of activities with the whole team. We were able to tour the area around our hotel to familiarize ourselves with the primary basic services (supermarkets, bakeries, shops, transportation, etc). We did walk for a couple of hours but the beach breeze definitely helped with the heat :) . Below is the picture of all 15 that make our Brazil 12 team!
We also had a great team building exercise with our team in the afternoon. Acely from IBM Sao Paulo and Joyce from Rio de Janeiro joined us at the exercise. It was an awesome bonding experience and we are off to a amazing start!
Tomorrow we have our official kick-off meeting with the clients starting the day at 8a.m. Can't wait!
Your hotel seems close to the beach. The view is great! Did you take the pictures by your new camera? Nice pictures. I believe you will have a marvious trip. I am looking for your update.

Hey Chun-Lin,
ReplyDeleteCorrect, we are on the beach and I took the pictures with my new camera. :) This is going to be a fun 1 month assignment! Hope you are doing well back in Austin.
