First step of the journey
I left my home town, Quito, a couple of hours ago, now I'm at Lima, Peru, so I'm now 1.200 km (800 miles) further away from TechEd, it looks like a step behind, doesn't it? There's a reason for it though: next Saturday 29th it is Lima Developer Day (part of Andean Developer Days) and I am an invited speaker, so after TechEd I have to fly directly from California to Peru; due to the business logic of air fares it is cheaper to buy a Quito-Lima-Quito ticket and a Lima-Los Angeles-Lima ticket than a Quito-Los Angeles-Lima-Quito ticket (go figure), so here I am at a Lima cyber-shop, spending my time until my second step: Houston.
