We are still in Paris, energy is good and we are just excited to finish this thing. We re-arranged and improved the page plan one last time more from the last version. Now it feels right!

Started the week with organising issn number, barcode and last-minute ad’s. We keep on finalising layouts, refining and coordinating with our copy-editor Henry.

We met our friends Jonas and Alma for dinner, and went to yoga class on another evening, which both were great for recharging.

Friday I took the Thalys train via Brussels to Cologne, lovely and productive ride. I worked on Saturday morning, in the afternoon we had our yearly get-together with my Alaaf and Kickin’ crew and lots of old friends in Cologne.

Sunday I worked as best as I could, but was mostly relaxing with my dad and sister: burgers and watching King Richard.
