Yesterday we hosted an event in San Francisco for all the founders in our portfolio. As investors we learn so much from the founders that we back every day and yesterday was an opportunity for them to help each other directly. 

I took this photograph of Bastian Lehmann at one of the breaks during the day. Bastian was checking out the latest version of Oculus called Crescent Bay which will blow your mind. (We are proud investors in Bastian’s company Postmates and were early investors in Oculus)

Thanks to all the founders that made time to participate at our collective event. We are grateful for all that you do. 

Galway, Ireland

Cong & Galway, Ireland. August 2014.

We spent the last few days visiting & exploring County Galway and County Mayo. One of the best meals we had during our stay in Ireland was definitely at Kai Cafe & Restaurant which is located in Galway’s West End. The food, scene, location, artisan beers and owners David and Jessica are wonderful.

Today we are driving back to Dublin for one night and then will make our return for Boston.

Our summer getaway is coming to an end.

Adare, Ireland. August 2014.

After leaving Kenmare, we drove to Adare for the weekend. It’s a beautiful place with a mix of thatch roofed cottages, gardens, excellent food and numerous historic sites.

Today we are headed further north along the west coast.
