Just recently, I went to Sapporo for a team meetup. As a company with distributed working/remote working Before It Was Cool™, Automattic understands the importance of meeting face-to-face. Yes, we do remote working, and yes, we also appreciate the opportunity to meet our co-workers in real life.

Anyway, the trip was mostly work-related trip as in, the week was filled with workshops and learnups. Nevertheless, it was fun.

Otaru Day Trip

“Otaru has been a major fishing and trading port since the 1800s. Many handsome turn-of-the-century western-style buildings, such as former warehouses, residences and offices, built by foreign shipping and trading companies, still dot the town. Together with its coastal location, this makes Otaru an architecturally interesting and aesthetically pleasing place to spend the day.”

Mount Moiwa

I’m so grateful to have the opportunity to see the leaves changing colors. Born and live in the tropics for my entire life, witnessing changing seasons is such a privilege. Thank you, Sapporo. Until next time.
