After 1 and a half year, it's time for me to say good bye to my rides, and more than that, my colleagues and friends -but not for long, just a year on the other side if the ocean!-

I can't thank them enough for making this place something I felt I belong to. Thanks for the laughs and the hard times we spent together.

My last day sure was crazy, this strike really gave us a challenge, but damn it was still fun!

And a little love to my rides too;

Slinky, you'll always be the best dog, and well somehow I'll miss you as my main.

Road Trip, people may hate you, but you surely were the best ride of the bunch to work on.

And Parachutes, well, you were a pain in the a$$, but I forgive you.

I don't know if I'll come back in these rides in particular next year, but I'll have a whole other adventure before finding out!
