Hey All, I'm glad you be here once again. In this short post, I will sync my CCIE journey progress.

The last time did it was in CCIE syn-ack. csco.

Something has changed. My main source of the truth becomes Oficial Guides, Official documentation, and also why not some RFC? No more using an INE subscription. But that doesn't mean I'm not watching awesome videos content and reading non-official resources :)

Of course, I can't miss mentioning I got a promotion. I'm no more CCS Intern about three or four months before. At the moment, I am Junior Cloud Engineer at Cisco Umbrella \o/. It was all a dream.

The day of the CCIE LAB Exam

On top of my mind, I have decided the Exam day. What I can share is that will be in this year. Actually, It is not soo far. However, some details should be in sync to be able to travel to another country and do a great job with confidence on the day of.
