What happens in Cannes stays in Cannes...



























..or so I was told. However I will risk breaking this apparently unwritten rule and state the fact that I found myself in a temporary Paradise; 4 days of seeing the best creative work there is, going to seminars and going out at night. 11 hours sleep in 3 nights would normally be anything but sufficient and although I was close to fainting because of the lack of sleep I will start counting down the days until next year. The last seminar with Al Gore somehow rounded up the cannes Lion neatly, that man deserves respect!!!

Another day at the office...in Cannes



With the motto "The more things you see the more ideas you have" the yearly creme-de-la-creme of the worlds' commercials is taking place in Cannes this week. The festival is called Cannes Lions and it is suposedly a perfect mix of seeing the most incredible creative work and drinking colourful drinks with funky looking people. I fear funky as in people wearing sunglassed indore, who hand out business cards every 5 minutes and who only feel like talking about themselves and their successes, but I will know in a couple of days, as of now I just can't wait until I have swapped my computer and my coffee with the sunset in Cannes and a Mojito.
