W8. New house.

W8. New house.
If I'm early, I'll have the entire coworking floor to myself.

With only two weeks left, it was time for a new place! I've been looking for a while, but it's still high season and busy on the island. Finally I found a cute little house that checked most of our boxes.

Somehow our luggage always expands in ridiculous ways here.

Obsessed with luxuries like actual water pressure, mosquito nets on all windows, and having a separate bedroom. And luckily I still have an amazing coffee shop 7 minutes walk away.

My top criteria tbh.

Tried to work at a cafe one day, but this dude could not start yapping.

... I'm still reading The Library at Mount Char and loving it. Will finish it soon and I miss it already.

... I'm aiming to send out the first newsletter of the year. Ok, I know I've said this three weeks in a row, but it's happening.

... I'm also rebooting Between Deadlines, my project management newsletter, that will shift to more process focused, connecting it to my new work direction.

... I'm looking forward to a night out on Tuesday. A lot of DJ's here play some form of hippie house music, so Stephan Bodzin is a welcome change.

Saw this sign on a walk, and thought it said "personal space".

Last week

... I got sidetracked from a lot of things I was planning to do, and instead started learning about agentic AI. Not mad about it – it was long overdue and will save me time going forward.

... I published a post about said rabbit hole: A freelancer's first steps with AI agents.

Lovely garden at a newfound writing spot, The Yoga House.

... I got back to movement! Did a mysore ashtanga class that was brutal, had pain in every single muscle for four days. Also practiced padel, still scared of any ball coming my way, but my serves are getting decent.

... We did an excursion and drove to the beach on the other side of the island. Very pretty, and more waves than we're used on our side.

East side beach.

Alright, time to get this week started.
