Project_M Day 8/28
Sunday, someday, sun. Woke early despite it being late last night. Made coffee, and then opened the windows in my bedroom to then fall asleep again. To the sound of nothing, very little & some wind. It was the most hygge I’ve had in a while. Permission to just be. Granted! Cycled a mad 67…

Project_M Day 7/28
Saturday, weekend, weakened. Woke up to this view. Coffee in bed. Book. Time to slowly descend into my day off. Today was the Dia de las Islas Baleares, a Spanish national holiday. Palma was full of artisan stalls, food stands, music & spirit. Took a stroll, bought some warm cardigans, ate some food, drank a…

Project_M Day 6/28
Friday is the day of the week where I give myself one final let’s-get-shit-done-push. And let’s move some furniture to make this casa more comfortable kind of moves! After that it was time to unwind a bit. A nice stroll around. Only a few other souls seeking the views. And then my first time seeing…

Project_M Day 5/28
I took a day off today. It’s simply too tempting to stay put at my computer. However, I did do victory hour (somewhat later) to stay ahead of my game. That is the new normal it seems. Went on an 11-km hike today. Just walking, one step at a time. A slowness that is highly…

Project_M, Day 4/28
Another day, another dollar. A very full day of appts. at my makeshift desk with a very hard chair. Finally managed to break free at 15:00. Decided to take the bike for a ride. Got lost once, confused twice, but found my way home. Whipped by the wind, and kissed by the sun. My highlight…

Project_M Day 3/28
Good Morning with some serious yawning! It was Gwen’s birthday. And then I spent the rest of my day working, moving furniture and keeping warm. Workcation sometimes more work than _cation, but that’s okay. Had dinner in Portixol, with a pornstar martini to underline Feierabend mode.

Project_M Day 2/28
Monday, a normal working day, with online appointments. However, I also welcomed my first visitor, and sent her to work straight away. Then I hopped onto my two-wheel-device… … and got lost. What a ride, blew the cobwebs right out of my head!

23 Feb 2025 Project_M Day 1/28
It’s not like I didn’t see it coming; I planned it, so what did I expect? After packing rationally, but with my favorite coffee & tea, I flew to Mallorca Sunday evening. I have wheels, and a license to … Mi casa is lovely. Rural, and comforting in its own Spanish way: I did some…

1 – 5 January, Schloss Elmau
There’s no better way to start a new year than being somewhere that allows you to clear your head, wipe the slate clean, and breathe new air. It was very physical, enduring and rewarding. We love this place. The staff are amazing, the food delicious, and the ambiente private. This place lets us know how…

1 – 3 December, Mallorca
Or as Europcar would say Ma Your Car! Another trip to la isla bonita. This time with a whole lot more people. It was a fun and action-packed three days. We had good food: It was a hot lemon & honey rich experience, and we all loved Valldemossa. So pretty & quaint. Here’s to more…

19 November, Timișoara, Romania
Oh, what a crisp way to begin the day. A nice wake-me-up-before-I-go-go morning run. The trophy was a yummy coffee. And then it was time to take our seats for day one of meetings: Lunch time used to escape & take a stroll in the autumn sun. And yes, postcards also sourced! Stamps, too. And…

18 – 22 November, Timișoara, Romania
A 04:30 taxi pick-up, a 05:00 train, an 08:25 flight to Munich and then another flight to Timișoara at 11:40, an Uber to the hotel, et voilá I made it. Crisp factor 6 out of 8. A wiedersehen with the SE works council reps, and four more nights away from home. The city is pretty,…
