How to benefit from podcasts: Denver DAB-18 digital radio review

Post image

For the first time in my life I won a prize: a digital radio receiver Denver DAB-18.That happened thanks to the Met het oog op morgen (which roughly translates as “With a view to tomorrow”) podcast, which I’ve been listening to for about a decade now. It’s double useful because you learn the news and improve your Dutch at the same time.This nightly podcast is being made by the NPO and published around midnight, so I’d usually listen to it the next day.Read on »

So long twenty-twenty-two

Post image

A while ago I was happy 2020 came to an end. Two years on, in the hindsight I must admit I shouldn’t have been complaining at all.That said, all things eventually come to an end, even those appearing eternal. So it’s time for a traditional upshot post.There are quite a few pictures under the cut, as a compensation for my lack of activity in this blog throughout the past year.Read on »

Video: snowboarding in Peisey-Vallandry & Les Arcs

Post image

As I don’t seem to ever have time to write a proper post about it, I’ll share a video of our recent Christmas wintersport occasion.We decided to go to the Paradiski region (where I’ve been six years ago). The region is comprised of three large resorts: La Plagne, Les Arcs, and Peisey-Vallandry.Back in 2017 we stayed in La Plagne, this time we booked a hotel in Peisey-Vallandry, but snowboarded mostly in Les Arcs (and one day in La Plagne).Read on »

So long twenty-twenty-three

Post image

The time flies like an arrow. Quite unexpectedly, it’s an upshot moment again!

War in Ukraine

This last year it’s become clear the war is the new normal now. With regular shellings of Ukrainian cities and repressions on the rise inside Russia. We call it the “negative natural selection,” when the meanest, the dumbest are in power, oppressing and punishing any dissent.

To an outsider’s eye it doesn’t make a shred of sense, that what the Russians are doing to Ukraine — or to their own folk for that matter. There’s, however, a strong, sinister feeling there’s a mighty good chance the situation will simply collapse into total chaos at some point.

My drinking calendar 2023

Post image

I stumbled upon a post on Reddit showing a drinking calendar for the last year, visualised by a 36 years-old guy. Frankly, it’s quite a disturbing picture for someone familiar with health risks related to alcohol — which I learned about from a podcast by Andrew Huberman. The author recorded 181 days with alcohol plus 5 (!) blackouts.

So I decided to make my own drinking calendar.
