View this post on Instagram We’re in Medellin! This is hands down the best teaching background I’ve ever had in an Airbnb 🗺 Colombia's City of Eternal Spring will be our home base for the next two months. This is the perfect place to hide out until winter is over. It's known as one of the best #digitalnomad destinations in the world. We previously did a nomad stint here during our big backpacking trip a few years ago, and I also traveled here solo for the @7in7co conference. We're super busy with work for the next two weeks here. Due to the coronavirus, our students in China are stuck at home, as their schools are delaying the next semester for obvious reasons. We're teaching a bunch of classes to try and bring a little bit of joy to these kids in this difficult time. Sasha being the gentleman that he is let me have the nice set up with a comfortable desk and chair along with this amazing world map background. For Sasha, the ironing board, plastic lawn chair, and plain white wall will have to do... at least he has Yoda and Little Monkey to help him out!

View this post on Instagram Prawdziwi bohaterowie są w szpitalach zakaźnych i na izbach przyjęć, ale ja też dokładam swoją małą cegiełkę do walki z epidemią. Cały weekend wiszę na telefonie i udzielam telekonsultacji po to, żeby chorzy nie wychodzili z domu i nie rozsiewali zarazy, zaś zdrowi się na nią nie narażali. Tłumaczę cierpliwie i przekonuję do izolacji przy każdej infekcji - jeszcze raz przypominam, że infekcja koronawirusem moze dawać bardzo różne objawy i dopiero zaawansowane testy molekularme dają odpowiedź z czym mamy do czynienia. W chwilii obecnej nie jesteśmy w stanie testować wszystkich, dlatego tak ważna jest izolacja - żeby mieć pewność, że czegokolwiek pacjent nie złapał, nie przekaże dalej. Z rozmów czuję, że ludzie poważnie podchodzą do tematu i jest to pokrzepiające. Z pozytywów dodam jeszcze, że ta cała sytuacja daje nam szansę na skok cywilizacyjny w zakresie codziennego stosowania technologii.

We can't help but wonder if the role comes with a company discount? View this post on Instagram This #BlackHistoryMonth, we are sharing the stories of our partners (employees) and customers. Stories that define, empower and inspire them. Edna was born a member of the Ga tribe in Ghana and immigrated to Denver as a child. Immediately there was tension between how she saw herself—as a proud Ghanaian—and how others wanted to see her—as a Black American. She often clashed with her African American friends on what Blackness meant. "Black people, we're not a huge monolithic group. If I don't tell you my story, how would you know that I didn't share the experiences of the other black people here?" Today, Edna, a Starbucks legal practice assistant, sees her identity—as a mother, as Jewish, as a lover of heavy metal—as a key ingredient to the richness that is the melting pot of the United States.
