Dear Friends,

I am about to leave for Denmark for the EPE. Scandinavia is close to my hometown in Germany, and I always enjoy traveling up north. I spent this year's summer vacation in Norway. There's a reason why people from these countries consistently rank very high in satisfaction surveys. The scenery is fantastic, and the people are generally very friendly and relaxed, no matter which of the countries you visit. For all my readers up there: Munich is not far away either. Don't miss my WBG event in Munich later this year!

Find all my magazines from 2006 on in our free archive on bodospower.com.
Do not miss our Chinese version bodospowerchina.com.
There is no better way to communicate. We all share one world.
As a publisher I serve the world: one magazine, on time, every time.

Best Regards,

Bodo Arlt editor@bodospower.com
