Almost a day with Jan Baan


Hi All,

Today, me and Velshankar along with Frans Clements, Jan Hasselman, Henk Duinkerke had lunch with our chairman and CEO, Jan Baan. Its very rare and great to have a talk with busy man like him. He also asked us some questions like "How is Netherlands?, Do you like Netherlands, Are you feeling comfortable in the castle?, Is the room service is good? and some more questions regarding the project progress". I asked some questions like "How old the castle was?, When temperature will get better?" and few more. Do you guys know?, the castle was 350 years old, but for me it was looking like build some one or two months back. Baan's family was maintain the castle with great care.


Also tonight, we were invited for the classical music function and for information reagarding the function name, you can have a look at the above image. In the function, it was like some group of persons will sing some classical and religious songs for two hours. I loved the way they sang and the rhythm of the songs and two hours passed very soon. Also got to know from Hans Don that Baan's family love classical musics and used to arrange classical music function twice a year in castle "De Vanenburg". Also during function also had a talk with Jan Baan and Paul Baan(Jan Baan's son), also with some very big giants of Cordys.

Tomorrow, we planed for weekend outing to Zotermeer(a town in Netherlands which is some hundred odd kilometers from our castle) will share the weekend outing in my next blog. Also Hans Don invited us to his home for dinner on upcoming Tuesday, hope we will available on Tuesday evening for going to his house and spend some time over there.

Thanks,
Ramesh Kumar Gurusamy.
