I was targeting Grandma’s waiting at the bus stop
Oh my God……..Valentin Radu had me cracking up!
The entire interview was hilarious. Check out the clip where he tells the story of when he sold cookbooks on the street. Catch the full episode on YouTube or on podcast.

Thank you for making season 5 Great!
We just wrapped up season 5 where we had conversations with 18 exciting Romanian startups. Fun fact, I’ve already met 13 of them in person and many of them I’m proud to call friends. That’s the main reason I do this podcast - to connect with interesting people, learn from them, and maybe even develop some friendships.
If you’d like to see who was on the pod for season 5, check out this carousel I made where I list information about each guest.

The last moments of Dr. Steven
The End
This past Sunday we met some friends at Edenland which is this amazing adventure park in the forest for kids. My son loves the tree rope courses. I didn’t anticipate my daughter doing any of these courses until next year when she’ll be four. But once she saw her brother and his friends doing the course, she was insistent on trying.
Surprisingly, they said she met the height requirements (her hair touched the line). So, we got her fitted with the gear and away she went.
This girl is going to take over the world 💪
