Time for the next personal retrospective. I’m going to play with the format.

2019 was a rather quiet and uneventful year.

I’m proud and happy that my ideas and work contributed to several thousand euros in donations for Round Table charity. “On fire for tabling.”

Figure: We didn’t know what to expect in Transylvania.

Some of the journeys I made with my girlfriend, Beatriz, with whom I moved in together in August, right into the heart of Hamburg. That was an important step for us, I look forward to the next one, and I love you, Beatriz.

I do love trying things and have a few plans for 2020.

Writings

I wrote.

Statistics

❧ It was a good year. I extend cordial wishes to you and your loved ones for the brief remainder of 2019, and wish you all the best for 2020. Be in touch.
