Grounded in Iași

Posted on September 23rd, 2011 by cliff1976

So I’m staying, reluctantly, overnight in Iași. I’m in Little Texas (www.littletexas.org), which is kind of ironic, given that my VPN’d proxy usually reports my IP as being in San Antonio. I’m staying here an extra night because of an … Continue reading →

Posted on November 3rd, 2010 by cliff1976

Got some local help on the evening activities on my most recent trip to Iași — mulțumesc to all. They helped me to see some aspects of their town — perhaps even their country — that were new to me, … Continue reading →

East of the West, West of the East

Posted on November 12th, 2008 by cliff1976

I’m headed out to Romania again today, this time back to Iași. I found it oddly appropriate that this comic was published today and I’m headed to a place that is straddling geographical and political, historical and present-day definitions of … Continue reading →

I’m back from Iasi

Posted on May 10th, 2008 by cliff1976

It was a good trip — we got some important stuff done, planning some short-term projects to get us over the hump we’re expecting in the coming months. It was nice to get to know my team’s local boss better, … Continue reading →

two car rentals in one day

Posted on July 8th, 2007 by cliff1976

Greetings from Iasi

Posted on July 4th, 2007 by cliff1976

Hi all, well, here I am in Iasi…or rather, Little Texas inside Iasi. The first thing that greeted us as we walked in the doorway fresh from the airport was an autographed of the President and First Lady. Yuck. Here … Continue reading →
