today is kavitha and i's last day in iguazu falls. we are celebrating by doing nothing! today so far, we have played a couple rounds of ping pong, foosball, and cards (crazy eights, yanif, and go fish). and we get our laundry back today too! we were planning to make a great dinner tonight, however it appears that many of our ingredients were either stolen or tossed out. sigh, the life of a hostel occupant.
as part of my doing nothing, i caught up on a couple of harvard business review podcasts this morning (i know, NERRRRD!). one was on engaging B players in your company, another was on the characteristics of gen y people entering the workforce, and another was on john elkington's latest book on the power of unreasonable people. i found the gen y one particularly interesting - one thing that i really hope is that in the future, the workplace will reflect the gen y's preference for work-life balance. 9-5 revolution!
another thing i would like to point out is the disadvantages of quick drying towels. although they are light and dry fairly quickly, after use they STINK! i think this is because they are made out of synthetic materials (nylon and polyester) and enjoy harbouring bacteria. i am not sure when someone will make some kind of anti-bacterial quick drying towel, because i am very close to picking up a normal towel.
