Celebrate St Patrick's Day

Serena_stpatsday 

People ask how I got involved in yacht and boat charters. I think it has to do with enjoying life! This typical St Patrick's Day meal of corned beef and potatoes isn't really fancy, but enjoyed with a glass ofwine and my NAWBO friends, I'm happy! Wanna get happy? Enjoy every day.

IKEA Business Network, NAWBO meet-up

SSPX0139 

I had the BEST time catching up with my NAWBO friends and meeting many new friends as well. The venue was fantastic! "Tack" as they said in Sweden. Thank you IKEA, for hosting  NAWBO (National Association of Women Business Owners). We enjoyed the wine and that delicious buffet. Of course, after our tour of the store I bought the Swedish meatballs and Lingonberry Sauce to take home with me! I was already a fan of your furniture and office products because your stores inspire me to see the possibilities in my own space. I want to recreate the clean, uncluttered look for which your stores are famous. We were encouraged to visit www.ikea.com/business to check out the network for entrepreneurs. While I was there I completed my business profile and uploaded pix of my workspace. Here you see my IKEA desk where I book your yacht and boat charters.
