family wedding in portugal. 9-day trip. our QBR was day 6.

normally a 90-min sync call. this time i sent the team a Gamma site i'd built two days before. AI for documents flow. all the data, all the commentary, all the next-quarter prio.

nobody on the team asked where i was. nobody noticed i was 'missing' the meeting. because there was no meeting.

i danced at the wedding. the QBR shipped. both happened. neither knew the other existed.

remote work isn't about working anywhere. it's about not having to be anywhere.
