Yes! This is what they say (Jeffrey Preston – the founder of Amazon.com): if you are having fun while working hard, you get to make history and change the world.
Here, at Twipe, we have a great team which is already making history. The history of Digital Publishing, the history of the office and the personal history of each of us. And all this is only possible thanks to the monumental work of our awesome people. We have a small secret too: we never forget to have fun!
Therefore, last month we decided to bring the fun-at-work to another level and we drove to the Netherlands. Destination: Efteling, the largest theme park in the country and one of the oldest in the world.
It was a full day, with a lot of fun and heart beats, great food and plenty of challenges and competition. Being divided into smaller teams, we had to compete against the others. In order to win, we had to transport water in small plastic cups, answer questions about fairies and mystical creatures and make a beautiful portrait of our neighbor, all while riding different-sized roller-coasters.

Our Marketing & Communications Executive, Andreea, was one of them and even though she loves extreme sports, she cannot stand roller-coasters. Because she was eager to try our latest acquisition, the Apple Watch, we decided to do a small experiment: to keep track of her heart beats during the entire day and see how that goes. Here it is, a small summary of the day:
