The birth of e-Clips

I met Beata thanks to a strange coincidence. 4th of July, 2006, the beautifull city of Tel-Aviv, Israel. Eloquent, beautiful, driven, joie de vivre, everything I could ask for from a woman (and everything I did ask from others, and did not get). I fell desperately in love. Luckily so did she.

A month and a half later, she flew back to the States. "It's only a summer romance", we promised each other, sad smiles on our faces. The hours went by, the days crawled away, and we somehow stayed in touch. Talking everyday, smsing, emails, we even opened a blog together, in a desperate attemp to taste eachother's life. We had to meet again. Just had to. And we did.

Dec of 2006. We meet in Thailand. It wasn't perfect, far from it, but we fell deeper and deeper in love. By the end of the trip we knew that we have to be together. There was no other choice. Three months later, having dropped my journalistic jobs, leaving friends and family behind, I came to the United States of America.

I didn't realize how bravely stupid I was, untill life in a strange and foreign country started overwhelming me. "Why not complicate a complicated existence?", I must have unconsciously thought to myself, and opened a video production company. e-Clips. A company that creates web video invitations to events. My love for people, my passion for video and my knowledge in writing, directing and editing came together.
