How did our predecessors ever live without delivery services? Whether it’s the supermarket delivery of washing powder and toilet paper, an Amazon delivery of fresh nappies, a delivery of fresh farm produce or a take-away delivery. Delivery services are amazing. Especially when you’ve got kids, and therefore are by definition time-poor. We’re frequent users of […]
Today was a great family day. From start to finish (It’s 9:30PM right now and I’m knackered!), I’ve spent the entire day with the family. I picked up some documents while my son slept in the carrier on me and my daughter walked with me. We had a nice chat along the beach on our […]
Two weeks ago, after I brought my daughter to her forest school I went myself for a walk into the forest while listening to a podcast. After some time I met one of the mums of a kid who also attends the forest school. We walked and talked for some time. Later on, I went […]
I build sandcastles. I build Lego. I build websites. I build projects. I build software. I build relationships. I build companies. I build a family. I build a legacy. Next time someone asks me what I do, instead of telling them about one thing I’ve done in recent history (InvoiceBerry), I’ll tell them about my […]
Yes, sometimes there is nothing more to say than what has been said in the blog post title. It’s the good life. Waking up, spending time with the kids, walking to the town hall branch to pick up a certificate only to realise that it’s closed. Now what? Complain and worry? Nope, just pop into […]
I’ve had a call with one of my Masterminds today. I almost skipped it because I thought I had little to report back since last week. In fact, I skipped that particular Mastermind call for a few weeks now. I didn’t feel the mental energy and capacity to talk to my Mastermind group colleagues. I […]
First BBQ of 2020 ✅ Today we went for a hike in the local Valencia area. A beautiful and family-friendly hike along a small stream with waterfalls. Perfect, until my wife sprained her ankle. Temperatures went up to 27 degrees in the sun, and it’s only the first day of February. Not bad! After we […]
After my daughter fell ill during the night from Sunday to Monday and we had to cancel our skiing trip, my week flipped a bit upside down. First I had to re-schedule a call with one of my team members, then I had to cancel one of my mastermind calls and lastly I got ill […]
Last year I jointed a coworking space in Valencia called Vortex. One of their members, who joined in the same week as me, is that Norwegian guy called Oyvind. He’s a nice guy with an interesting story, a maker attitude and an entrepreneurial spirit. Needless to say that I’m happy to surround myself with people […]
Lots of coughing. Ski trip cancelled. Family separated into two parts. That more or less sums up the past 24 hours. My daughter got ill in the night from Sunday to Monday. I’ve been looking after her for the past 24 hours while my wife took the baby and stays/sleeps in a different part of […]
