In memoriam: Sander Gaarenstroom

I was going to write about the fun I've had in Hamburg; about how I met a lot of people from the Miami Ad School again; about visiting my good friends Salvatore and Andres at Jung von Matt.
But yesterday bad news came barging in. The Dutch advertising world is shocked by the sudden death of Sander Gaarenstroom. He was one of my fellow boardmembers at the Young Dogs when I first started there in 2003. In that time he played a vital role in pushing the organisation for young creatives through the crisis. For this achievement he will always be remembered. My deepest sympathy to his former colleagues, friends and family for the unfortunate loss of an inspiring and truly unique person.
