Really nice exec lounge here at the Sofitel in Krabi Thailand.

On the local G&Ts. The Kilo Gin and Vodka are made only 10km away from the hotels site.

A few cocktails and sushi never did anyone any harm :)

99 Sushi is Michelin starred and worthy of it here in Abu Dhabi.

Not all 5G networks are created equal 🚀

Our 5.5G network at e& UAE is an absolute beast. 💪🏼

Dinner at StrawFire tonight in the Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental #AbuDhabi.

Wonderful mix of dishes from the kitchen, modern Japanese flair executed flawlessly. Kama Toro sashimi was wonderful along with the Beef Tataki.

Ha! Fast

For top 3rd wave coffee, try Caffè del Doge or Torrefazione Cannaregio. Eat cicchetti, tramezzini, and visit St. Mark’s Basilica, Rialto Bridge, and Grand Canal plus take vaporetto line 4 to Murano and cruse around on line 1

Good morning #NewYork!

This time from the TWA terminal in JFK..

Quick run to Brooklyn for bagels and coffee then back to JFK for my flight this afternoon

Love the Chase Sapphire lounge in @JFK airport. It's also used for @etihad Buisness and First class passengers. The lounge has an app you use to order food and drinks like cocktails etc to the table.

Good morning Beijing! A quick trip through the city and Tiananmen Square which is getting ready for a military parade in a few days. Past the CCP headquarters too.. now at the airport to board my flight to Shenzhen.

Jono @jonoh.bsky.social · Aug 29

Off to the airport again. 5 flights and a bullet train are in my future over the next 9 days..

Meetings will be back to back most days but evenings for cocktails, food and exploring…. China. 🐼🇨🇳🎍

It’s here! My “Green Monstah” cap has arrived all the way in Abu Dhabi. This year’s City Connect for Boston is great. City greens!

Let’s go #RedSox.

Jono @jonoh.bsky.social · Aug 22

Enjoying some Argentinian Malbec. Finishing up my Pinot and she’ll be unleashed.

A 2022 Catena Zapata.. this #Wine is just wonderful.

What a lovely evening in the capital.

Summer is on the way out in the next few weeks and the cities come alive again after the summer break.

#AbuDhabi 🇦🇪

A good happy hour or table wine never goes a miss.

I find Italians nail it from the old world. But Aussies own the reds for it new world style. Tho our Pinots can go either way.

Jono @jonoh.bsky.social · Aug 17

Any word on the happy hour wine? Where she from?
