Coworking Spaces

Coworking spaces are an interesting phenomenon of modern history. According to my favourite source Wikipedia, the concept of coworking spaces is less than two decades old. So we basically all became freelancers and digital entrepreneurs in order to be location independent. Summer in Europe, winter in South East Asia. Or maybe summer at the beach […]

Perspective

I started writing this post yesterday, until I realised that it’s a Sunday and that means it was time for my weekly review. Yesterday, I had an argument with my 3-year old daughter. I had to take care of both my kids, my 3-year old daughter and my 2-month old son. When I finally had […]

The Weekly Review #3

I almost forgot about my weekly review. I was half-way through my daily post with the title “Perspective” before I realised that it’s Sunday and that means it’s time for my weekly review. That in itself shows how much I still struggle with planning and reviewing my weeks. And that can definitely be seen in […]

What do you love about yourself?

Having a coffee or a meal while enjoying the landscape or just observing other train passengers. Today I’ve done the route Valencia […]

Time Apart

When you google for the term “time apart” you straight away get bombarded with headlines such as “Can time apart strengthen your relationship?” and “Reasons why you and your partner need time apart”. Tomorrow I’m going to catch the train from Valencia to Barcelona for a 3-day trip apart from the family. On Wednesday and […]

Alcohol / Dry January

Yep, Dry January is apparently a thing. So is Sober October. Back in the day you would just decide to cut out alcohol for a month and that’s it. Nowadays you need to give your challenge a funny name that rhymes with the month when you do the challenge. Alright, fine by me if it […]

The Weekly Review #2

Alright, so kudos where kudos are due. I’m extremely tired after putting my daughter to sleep and all I wanted to do is stay in bed and sleep until tomorrow morning. But there’s that daily blog post I’ve got to write. So out of bed and onto the laptop! Last Sunday was the first weekly […]
