Dear readers,

Let me blog a few lines before I dive into two restless weeks of studying towards the end of the semester. And it won't be studying only but quite some organizational work too...

Those of you who follow my stories might remember that in July (8th to be precise) we are going to India for the Summer School of Business Informatics. Excitement is going through the roof :D. Days are going by in contacts with companies for case studies, sponsorship, and arranging visits to their India premises. And, finally, I think I'm going into something significant results with my research topic on Collaboration Tools Portfolio Optimization.

In the meantime, "The Lonely Planet Guide to India" is turning into my favorite reading (knowledge management papers are having a hard time in the race for attention, haha). After our research visit is over, I'll extend my stay for ten more days. Time for culture and kitchen :). It is wonderful that at Utrecht University we have this great research and cultural opportunity.

I would like to finish with a few tips. Firstly, everything you might ever hear about the Indian bureaucracy is most probably true :D. Please, believe it and take it very seriously event if it includes stories for elfs, trolls, or little green men. Finally, don't ever think that organizing a research trip to India for 20 students won't be "that much work".
