Greetings from Lucca!

Today it's back to work! Some from home, some from the office, but certainly all with a different energy and that positive tiredness that stays with you after an intense and fun weekend.

Work often keeps us apart: on projects, at Clients, in teams... So it is essential, at least a couple of times a year, to set aside some time all together, to discover new things about one another, to have the chance to talk about ourselves rather than about work.

As is tradition, to celebrate Open Gate's 21st birthday, we treated ourselves to 3 days of holiday all together! This year we chose a village near Lucca, where we found good food and Tuscan wine, great relaxation by the pool and, so as not to miss out on anything, an adrenaline-filled adventure on the river!

In particular, from us lazy ones :), who chose a table in the shade, with lots of food and excellent wine... all our applause goes to our heroic colleagues who, scornful of danger and (for some) of advancing age, dived from over five meters into an icy river, climbed rocks, lost shoe soles, nearly suffocated in wetsuits "for skinny people"... coming back to the village (all safe and sound) exhausted and happy!
Congratulations to all of you! And next year, we lazy ones will also take part in the adrenaline activity... we promise (not true, it will never happen! Long live food + pool!).

Thank you all for the wonderful weekend!
