    My Life: A Few Days With Microsoft – Miami #MSFTSTYLE

    I was invited to Miami by Microsoft to hang out for a few days. Meet my driver, Jose.

    They put us up at the Shore Club Miami

    We had gift bags in our room from the Webster Hall Boutique in Miami. We had plans to meet for drinks around 5 so we had the chance to go to the beach with some of the goods that we received.

    Microsoft sent up a little gift to keep us cool.

    We got introduced to some of the new Microsoft views that I will talk to you guys about later.

    We also got introduced to the wonderful world of XBOX Kinect – Wow it does so much great things. Full review coming soon.

    We learned about BING and a few tips on how to use Microsoft Skydrive.

    We were then gifted with brand new laptops and new Windows HTC Phoes.

    This phone has a 16megapixel camera. Things look great on this device.

    Then we had a Microsoft dinner.

    Day 2 was cool, we had breakfast in the penthouse on the roof top which was killer. Do you like my new shades? They were also a gift from Microsoft. They have brand partners who were kind enough to gift us some cool items. The brand is called IVI and they use Zeiss lenses from their frames. The company is owned by Rob Dyrdek and a few other partners.

    Using my new phone to snap pictures.

    We ventured off to some of Miami’s best Art Galleries with Nina Johnson as hour host.

    We stopped by Lester’s for some snacks. Organic Beef Jerky…yum

    We went to Nina Johnson’s gallery for a special lunch cooked by Chef Michelle Bernstein.

    After lunch we headed to a private boat to have drinks with famous mixologist @eladzvi

    This  was really fun and exciting. Being able to see Miami culture through the eyes of Microsoft was really great. They put on a great press trip highlight great areas of our lifestyle, like art, entertainment and technology.

    We saw a few great homes along the way. This is what 80 million dollars looks like.

    The next day we wrapped up.

    Headed back to the airport with Jose.

    Then got on a plane and off to the next adventure.

    I will be reviewing the phones, laptops and some of the other cool things in a few weeks!

    Thanks Microsoft for the great experience.
