Viva La Republica!

Finally, the much anticipated day arrived. On September 28th, HPNG welcomed the founder of Republica Trading Company, Rafael Jimenez to our forum. Having only read about him, I wasn't sure what what his personality was like, so I was pleasantly surprised that his sense of humor kept the dialogue fresh and friendly and above all, real.

The story was great, the inspiration was even greater. I'm only sorry I forgot to ask him to bring along a pair of sunglasses from their upcoming Republica Eyewear collection, so we could have a drawing. No worries, we'll ask him to visit again. Thanks Rafael.
