USA, USA, USA, USA – Vlerick MBA
http://michaelgino.com/2011/09/usa-usa-usa-usa
USA, USA, USA, USA. Siska and I are taking off tomorrow (and Tuesday) for the US for 24 days of much needed holiday and to catch up (and meet) the friends and family that I have neglected and not seen for a year! Long overdue and I (and she) are extremely excited for the trip and to make some memories with everyone in the US. For the trip we started A DIFFERENT PHOTO BLOG. Where we will post a picture per day and maybe a thought or two in English and Dutch. I’m from BARCELONA. 3 Oct ’11 · 15:35.

I’m from BARCELONA – Vlerick MBA
http://michaelgino.com/2011/09/im-from-barcelona
I’m from BARCELONA. Random fact…the band “I’m from Barcelona” is actually from Jönköping, Sweden and has 29 members. Well, now that the job hunt is in full force I thought I’d post some pictures from my most recent travels…Barcelona. Leuven, however, is not known for its sunshine so I wanted to take my parents to a place that they (and I) have never been. Since I fell in love with Spain on my trip to Madrid. Here are some pictures from my memorable trip to Barcelona…with some family shots included!

The Other Side of Ghana – Vlerick MBA
http://michaelgino.com/2011/08/the-other-side-of-ghana
The Other Side of Ghana. This won’t be a long post, mostly because I need to send out more resumes than I do blog posts (unless someone will employee me to travel and write, but I’m guess that’s a far-fetched ambition). It’s almost too difficult to put into words what we saw, so I’m just going to express it through pictures instead and let you draw your own conclusions. These pictures make the work we are doing here even more appealing. The last firms we’re working with is very inspiring taking the chall...

West African Exploration – Vlerick MBA
http://michaelgino.com/2011/07/west-african-exploration
8211; The Beginning. The team arrived on Wednesday night after several delays and interesting run-in with Turkish Airlines. No offense to Nigeria, but we definitely did not want our bags to be unloaded in Lagos (from the stories we’ve heard)and low and behold, Turkish Airlines decided to mix all of our bags together so everything needed to be unloaded causing a two hour delay and absolute hilarity from the local Ghanaians who were yelling for answers.

China – Somewhat Topical – Vlerick MBA
http://michaelgino.com/2011/07/china-somewhat-topical
China – Somewhat Topical. Or part oneI guess if you count the first as a literal introduction). I’m struggling to write this and I now wish I would have written posts as I went along in China. I wrote a personal journal of the daily activities and my overall thoughts on the trip (on pen and paper) but now that we’re in Ghana it’s hard to recollect the details, particularly as we see many overwhelming sights (and smells) here. Let’s go with the highlights. Told You I slept through Tai Chi. Was extremely i...

Perspectives (on Politics & Economic Welfare) – Vlerick MBA
http://michaelgino.com/2011/10/perspectives-on-politics-economic-welfare
Perspectives (on Politics & Economic Welfare). For no reason other than laziness and relaxation, I decided that I would not actively post from this little road trip across the United States, but as I find myself on a three-hour flight from Denver to Cleveland there’s a little itch that needs to be scratched. Can you wholeheartedly say that you are better off now than you were 20 years ago? Occupy Wall Street (1) – Fox News (0). And tagged Life after Vlerick Management School. USA, USA, USA, USA.

China – An Introduction. Aside from words I have 600 photographs that I personally took, another 150 from our resident photojournalist that I stole from her and another 80 or so from a classmate who has a very distinct tendency for Chinese/Japanese logos.

Too Long – Vlerick MBA
http://michaelgino.com/2012/11/too-long
It’s been a long time since I took to the keyboard and actually pushed out an update. That being said, I have nearly 9 months of pictures, trips and thoughts bouncing around in my head that should be unleashed for future employers to review and I have every intention of doing that in the coming weeks. I’m not sure how I’ll do it…but rest assured, for those of you who care…I’ll deliver. Seville (read: Tinto & Football, part II). I am anxiously waiting to read them! 27 Nov ’12 · 14:39.
