This might end up being my shortest post of the year since I’m trying to unplug today, but I wanted to take a minute to wish all of my readers around the world a Merry Christmas. Some of you might know that I’m Jewish, but I grew up celebrating Christmas and it’s still one of my favorite holidays. There’s just something magical about Christmas and whether you’re religious or not, this is a great week to relax and unwind.
We try to get away every year for Christmas since, as startup founders, this really is the one week a year where we can actually unplug and take a break. We’ve tried taking “summer vacations” and they never work out, we always end up getting pulled back into work, but this week is one that universally people take off, so if I don’t check my email for a few days, the world won’t come to an end.
This year we’re celebrating Christmas in Lake Como, Italy and it has been really nice to have a chance to relax, unwind, and just be. Given that we live in a busy city and when we travel we often go to other busy cities, it’s really nice to spend some time in a peaceful place where time seems to move a bit slower.
I hope you’re getting a chance to do the same. So Merry Christmas, here’s to a relaxing week!

Hello, Morgan, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year for you and your family.
The religions and the beliefs in these dates are viable for all, we are born where God chooses our destiny and place.
I am a believer in religion and my second religion is music, the third is research and innovation.
Happy Day. Jose.
