What's happening

I am in the process of relocating to Tallinn to help run out hub there but mainly for family reasons to be able to more easily spend time helping out with family in Finland.
I'll be dividing my time between Berlin/Tallinn and spare time in Finland.

(This is a now page, and if you have your own site, you should make one, too.)

What I’m reading

I'd like to be able to spend more time reading than I currently have time for. This is why I subscribe to Blinkist so I can listen a summarised "blink" version of a book every day.
I've found this to be super useful as most books I wouldn't want to buy for myself. Listening to them in "blinks" allows me to find out which books have relevant content for me and then go and buy the full version afterwards.

What I'm listening

I have a ton of audiobooks in my Library on Audible. I usually only find time to listen to them while traveling.
I listen to all kinds of music but my favourite stuff is still the 90s classic metal.

What I’m watching

I watch a lot of conference and technical talks on YouTube and lately also a lot of trading related videos as I am getting into day trading and options trading a bit.
Here's a good one from Susanne Kaiser who we've worked with a bit on Value Streams, Wardley Maps, Domain Driven Design, Event-storming and Team Topologies.

What I’m enjoying

Time with friends and family
