No one said I would post regularly

On one side I was honestly busy (luckily good kind of busyness), on the other I often forget about this blog.
In retrospective, I started writing here as an Instagram substitute, so in an effort to post more I will focus more on pictures and less on writing. Be in touch if you want to know more!

Starting with the headline news, we bought a house! That took a long time and a lot of paperwork (not to mention the figurative wheelbarrows of money for London prices).

I think this sums the first two months on 2024 well enough, if it wasn’t for the fact that I’ve also left my Job at Gousto and joined Kraken on the very last day of February.
