There’s no rest for the wicked. We are sending out orders even though we have traveled to Hokkaido for a week-long ski trip.

The beauty of having an iPhone is it helps us mix work and pleasure wherever we are:

We hooked up to the Internet to check incoming orders at Chitose Airport in Sapporo — I scribbled down the addresses and sent off some collagen from the airport’s post office.

The work doesn’t stop but we’re not preventing ourselves from dipping our toes into having fun. Snowboarding in the arvo and working in the evening, whilst ensconced in a gorgeous lodge and marshmallow covered trees and hills just outside our window.

We tried sending out products during our Sydney trip last Christmas and it worked out pretty well but we ran out of inventory. With that experience under our belts, we kind of know what to expect for this trip in Hokkaido so we’re better prepared.

On a more personal note, our little sojourn in Niseko is billed as our trial-run for our dream of working from snow-capped ski-fields and/or white sandy beaches. Some folks may see it as a pity to never rest from work but neither of us are individuals who resent that and we accept it as a way of life. It’s fun workin’ and playin’ hard.
