• Gavin Olender (aka Bro-lender) is living large in Germany: "I got that job I wanted and moved my family to the south of Germany. We rent but the area is nice and we live nestled in the black forest near the Lake of Constance. The Alps are also not too far away. I assume you have gotten updates about our little girl last September from facebook. About work, I do design verification of the medical products in the company, Aesculap."
