Hey Banana boat, 

Now that the graduation fever has passed, that you had some time to relax, and to unpack your luggage, I wondered... has anyone find my iphone? Haha, what upppp bananas? Hope every one is having a great summer. Are you already back to work? What's the update? 

On the baguette side, I am in Saint Jean de Luz, in basque region (south west of France), also known as paradise on earth. Rashi is discovering and enjoying the french Art de Vivre and the local traditions (a bottle of rosé wine every day keeps the doctor away). 

The plan is to leave to south africa end of August for the real start. I had some interesting meetings with VCs in Paris, of which one where I feel there is a potential very good fit. Finger crossed. 

I am still listening to the bananaboat playlist. Everytime I hear Kid Kudi, I have an image of a bud light coming instantly in my mind. 

Rashi will be back in the Bay Area earlier around the 20th of August. She'll have the latest news! 

hope to hear from you soon, 

Eric 

Ps: Mike did you get a new jawbone bracelet ? (and speakers? I especially recommend the ones that can "really" connect to other devices via Bluetooth).

French Eric, I couldn't help but read your email with a French accent in my head. it  made it sound like a dialogue in a French movie. tell rashi I said hello. ive been on the tinder app and its the greatest thing alive! I think manu may be an indian pimp or something, ive seen like ten girls that are friends with him. I can see him with big thug chains and having a nickname like gatah, gatahs bitches better be wearing jimmies...
 
eric glad everything is going well in paradise! maybe one day ill make it over there!
 
I myself am looking into other ventures. I was approached by an industrial gas company named Linde, apparently worlds largest supplier of gas. they want me to be their account manager for the eastern ct, all of ri, and southern mass region. im on my 4th interview(last night) and was scheduled a lunch next week. don't think theyd have me go through all of this if it wasn't a sure thing.its no sloany job but not bad for a state school educated kid like me hahaha. if I get it , it looks like ill be moving to Newport rhode island. mainly for the boats and hoes. all bananas are welcome to crash with me when I do move there.

Great to hear from you guys!!! Frank, the cougar whisperer, great to hear that you are representing the banana boat in full force on tinder. Proud of you man even if it's at the expense of my friends.

Banana baguette hope your baguette is nice and toasted in the sun!! You may not want over toast it because then it might catch on fire.

I have just moved into San Fran the banana capital of the world with the smoking banana as my roommate. We went to eat Indian food may well at 1 in the morning and got 100% explosive diarrhea. Great success. I am glad we have real bathrooms now with a flush.

Hope other bananas are well and let us know if you are ever in town!

"The Cougar Whisperer" is a great nickname, to be sure.

If you guys are ever in Boston or Los Angeles, let me know.

Frankie, beware, rumor here in LA is that Tinder is paying girls in multiple markets to go on dates with guys!

That tinder rumor explains so much.

Smokey banana reporting for duty. Living in SF with tandooriloin. Work is awesome, but I have no idea what I'm doing...def miss the whole b-school vibe; that was an awesome vacation.

Everyone is welcome to stay here when they pop by.

Peace and love bananas.
