Solo Experience in Finland in Summer 2010
Happy new year everyone also from my side! The blog has been a little sleepy last days just like the bears sleep and hibernate over the winter. And Moomins do the same. Nevermind that, because we are thinking warm thoughts and next summer.
1.5 years ago we did a brave experiment with our friends Ralf, Charles, David and Marie. It was called a Penquin Expedition (a pdf) and it included a special thing called Solo Experience. Solo may be familiar to you for example through books like Syncronicity and Presence. Our experience was very good, we have a special place by the lake Saimaa where we can work and the summer in Finland is spectacular.
This coming year we are planning to open solos. The first one is in the first week of June and the second one will be together with a Penquin Expedition and during the last week of August. Here are some slides about the first one!
Loads of yellow! Ville

What can I say? As a graduate from Team Academy, I have the courage to act first and think later. As you all can see, I live in Turku now and haven’t regret it one bit. (At least for now) To be honest, I had planned moving to Turku for a year before I More >
Visitors from France, Canada and Jyväskylän Maalaiskunta at the Yellow Office

I am excited about coming week as we are getting local and international visitors at our home nest, the Yellow Office. I think this week culminates some of Monkey Business vision of being a global microbrand. I believe in Peter Senge‘s words that the “what is most systemic is most local”. But that we need More >
