Such is startup life…

The trip combines hiking along a secluded Inca trail with overnight stays at traditional mountain lodges. It’s been sold out for weeks but I have two spots. Send me an email if you’re interested.

I went to the Apple Store earlier with a friend who got a MacBook Pro and an iPhone. We were in and out in 5 minutes. This no-camping procedure is also known as having a life. Too bad for those who over-estimated the demand, camped for hours or even days thinking that they’ll be able to sell their iPhone on CL for $2000.
